Deep Sea Phonics: Idea #299

Looking for an awesome educational computer game? Try out the following website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/ks1/literacy/phonics/play/popup.shtml. It is a fun and free game where students can practice spelling simple words. 

At the beginning of the game you choose whether you would like: medium, hard, or really hard words. Once the student has chosen the game it is quite simple to play. They hear a word from the computer and spell the word using the letter options given. When they get it right they see a picture of the word and then move on to the next one. After they have done five words the game is over, but they have the option to move up a level or play the same level again.

This game is a good one your student can play independently. Have fun checking out this great computer game!
