Materials:

dictionary, checkerboard set, paper, pen/pencil

Procedure:

Students are divided into groups of three or four. Two students will be the players while the third player gets to open up the dictionary to give out the words to be spelled. If there is a fourth player, the third and fourth player can take turns giving out the words. The student who gives out the word must write down the words he/she is throwing out to the two players challenging each other. He/She must also write down who missed whatever letters.

The two players take turns, one word at a time, spelling out the vocabulary word(s). The rules of checkers apply throughout the game. The person who wins is the person who captures all of the checkers so it doesn’t matter how many vocabulary words are given out.
