Reading Lesson Plans & Comprehension - Sparkle

The Teacher's Corner  

Sparkle

Once a marking period I play the game of Sparkle instead of a spelling assessment.  Sparkle is a game where I announce the spelling word.  Each student says a letter, until the last letter.  The person after the last letter says "sparkle" and they sit down.  If a student says the wrong letter they sit down too.  The students love it because you are not always "out" if you misspell the word.  I assess all spelling words and words from previous units.

The great thing about sparkle you can use it not only for spelling, but for other subject areas such as Math (mult. tables, addition tables), Social Studies, and Science.
