Fun Spelling Game: This is not your average spelling test!

Inspired by Among Us, learners have less than 15 seconds to race against the clock to identify the "imposter" word (the one that is spelled incorrectly). Here's the twist: The possible responses start disappearing after time. Incorrect answers lose points and correct answers earn points. Not only that, the faster learners answer correctly, the more points they earn. This game provides a fun way for learners to identify spelling errors and (hopefully) use these same detective skills to proofread their own work.

At less than 3 minutes in duration, this is perfect for early-morning warmups or midday energizers.

Curious? Try it! Here's a preview of the functionality of Think Fast games. The preview version is for illustrative purposes only, This version has more response options than in the preview. Please refer to the thumbnails on this page to see an example of this game's content.

It's Comprehensive:

• I researched several search engines to identify challenging words and the incorrect ways they are spelled.
• I also researched misspelled words within grade levels and across the U.S. population.
• Lastly, I made sure to include words with unique spelling rules, such as doubling the final consonant and changing from "y" to "ies".

• A single-player game that can be played online or offline. Can also be used for classroom review.
• Among Us Crewmate Clipart: That ESL Teacher.

• Replay option: Questions are randomly selected from a pool. Possible answer choices are shuffled. This combination makes it possible to produce a unique quiz with each replay attempt. In addition, new questions will be added to the pool periodically to keep the pool robust.
• Learners are presented with 10 questions out of a pool of over 130, ensuring it's never the same game twice!
• Learners are acknowledged by the name they entered when launching the game.
