General Purpose:

This activity is best used to improve spelling and word recognition and definition. Activity created by Su Nottingham and modified by Deb Tackmann.

Materials:

1. Put students in groups of 4-5

2. Each Group needs one HUGE Poster Board that is in a crossword form.

3. Each Group needs one baggie filled with the letters (enclosed)

Instructions:

1. The students place their sexy scrabble letters scattered on the table. They place their poster board crossword in the middle of the table.

2. The teacher DEFINES A WORD that the students need to know for the unit.

Example: “These two tubes connect the ovary to the uterus in the woman.”

3. Students in their group quickly find the letter F-A-L-L-O-P-I-A-N-T-U-B-E and place it in the middle of the crossword. The first person in that group to stand up and SAY AND SPELL the word correctly, gets a point (or bonus buck)

4. The next word would work off of the word FALLOPIAN TUBE (example: Using the letter A, define the term vagina.)
