How to Play
Whole Class Cooperation
The class works together solving magic words on the interactive whiteboard. Determine how long you will play or set a goal for the number of words to complete before you start the game. Have one student at a time come up to the interactive whiteboard and solve a word by touching and dragging a letter to the correct space.
Small group or single player – Played on a tablet or computer workstation (PC or Mac)
Start the game on a tablet or computer and allow the student(s) to play for a certain length of time. If you want to create a competition between students, record their scores on a piece of paper or blackboard and see who can solve the most words in a defined amount of time.
Individual student at home while distance learning - Students can play their assigned games at home using the “Student Link” that is assigned to your pinkcatgames.com account. I have created the following tutorial that will help you get the game set up quickly: https://www.pinkcatgames.com/learn/distance-learning
