This
activity takes a little preparation on your part, but once all
the cards are made, it becomes a great spelling review to pull
out anytime! Make 5 sets of cards so that you can divide your
class up into 5 different groups. Each set of cards should be
on a different color of construction paper. For each set, write
one letter of the alphabet per card. Include 3 cards of each vowel
and 2 cards of each consonant to make a total of 57 cards per
set. Now you're ready! You may want to move the desks and chairs
to the side of the room to give your groups plenty of space. Give
each group a set of cards. Call out a spelling word. The first
team to spell out the word on the floor correctly receives 2 points.
Every other team that spells the word correctly receives 1 point.
The team with the most points after all the spelling words are
called, wins!
