New Game: Word Stacks

I've uploaded a new word game which should be a lot of fun for English learners to try.

The premise is very simple: use a stack of letters to make a word. The longer the word, the more points. The game ends when the user can no longer find a word. You'll have to be careful not to let the more difficult letters (x, q, z) stack up.

You can try the game here:

Chopped! - a new word game

It's time for a brand new word game on Road To Grammar.

In Chopped, the player is given a set of eight letters and you need to cut the letters out in such a way that they form a word of three letters or more. You'll need to be fast to beat the timer, which goes faster every round. You get bonuses for longer words or for finding a word quickly.

Chopped should work really well as a class game on a smartboard. Try it now while it's still easy to get a high score!
