Spelling games

Here is a game that we use to review and practice spelling words. My third grade class absolutely loves it!! Choose one child to be the spelling "Bee". As he buzzes around the room, all of the children chant this verse. | "Spelling bee, Spelling bee, buzzing on your spelling spree; Ha Ha,Hee Hee; You can't sting ME!!!The current "Bee" stops and stands behind another student. The teacher recites one of the current spelling words. If the student correctly spells it , that child becomes the new spelling "Bee" and the old "Bee" sits down at the new "Bee's" desk.If not successful the whole class spells it in unison | |
and the first child continues. To keep the whole class actively involved when one child is spelling a word, they can listen carefully and "thumbs up" if it's spelled correctly, and "thumbs Down" if it's not. Anyway, it's really a very simple, fun game.
