Spelling Game

This is a really fun group game we played with our extended family over the holidays.

DIRECTIONS:

• 12 players, one reader, and one ref/score keeper are needed
• Divide players in to two teams: 6 players each team
• Copy the following letters onto sheets of copy paper. One letter per sheet of paper. T S R L D M E N E I O A
• Create 2 sets of letters. One for set for each team.
• Pin the letters T S R L D and M on the front of team players.
• Pin the letters E N E I O and A on the back of team players.
• Teams will race to spell words given to them by the reader.
• Team members who’s letters are not being used must sit down for that word.
• The first team to spell the word correctly and have all team members in their position wins the word. The ref/score keeper judges which team completes the word first.
• The team to win the most words at the end of the game WINS.
