Play or pass  Organise students into teams. Ask 

team A to spell a word. Choose words that your students 

have had difficulty with. Possible words include: 

mystery, 

bruise, whistle, embarrassed, disappear, beautiful. They can 

choose to spell it or pass it to another team. If they spell 

it correctly themselves, they win a point. If they get it 

incorrect, they get no points. If they pass it to team B and 

they get it correct, then team B get the point. If they pass 

it and team B get it incorrect, then team A get the point. 

Continue until all the words have been spelled and there 

is a winner.
