Letter Rush
Letter Rush is yet another word game for iOS devices. I’m looking forward to trying this out with learners at school next week. The twist is that the words that need spelling are provided for you, you then make them from the word grid as quickly as you can. Games like Letterpress or Wordtower where the player has to come up with words themselves often turn off students with weaker literacy skills, their lack of vocabulary makes the games too difficult. If they don’t feel like they’re doing we’ll they’ll quickly turn back to Minecraft!
