Word Scramble
Increase vocabulary. Create combinations of letters to make words. Communicate, discuss and compare creations.
Let's play!
Player 1 : Think of a word and find the letters for your word.
Player 1 : Mix them up in your hand and give them to player 2.
Player 2 : Read the letters.
Player 2 : Make a word using all the letters.
Player 2 : Write word on your base plate.
Both players : Compare and discuss your words.
How to prepare
1 base plate
All the letter bricks
Place the bricks and the base plate between the players.
Facilitation tips
Clues about the word may be helpful: definition, placement of letters …
Ask “Imagine a story about your word. Think of other words for your story”
Additional letters can be pre-arranged in alphabetical order on an additional base plate. Could be a warm-up activity!
Possible variations
Designate a specific number of or mandatory letters to be used.
Change the number of players.
