[LM_NET] HIT: ELEM online dictionary games

[Katie Anderson <library@MLCCHARTER.ORG>]

I received only a couple of suggestions, but quite a few requests for a hit.
Here's what we used today which the students all enjoyed:

www.wordcentral.com/games.html  from Merriam-Webster online was by far the
favorite.  It has challenging words and I don't know that it helped
reinforce dictionary skills, but it was very popular

www.primaryresources.co.uk/online/alphaorder1.swf has students practice
putting words in alphabetical order

www.quia.com/rr/45806.html has practice with guide words

 

funbrain.com was also recommended, but we didn't have a chance to use it.
