As we continue to work on spelling more words correctly, we are
playing a game that will help us with that. It is called Melting
Snowman. It is basically just the game Hangman but I didn't want to have
to explain "hanging" to first graders so I changed the hanging man to a
melting snowman (photo below). Play is just the same, you guess letters
to complete the phrase and if you guess incorrectly, a part of the
snowman "melts" (is erased). You have to guess the word or phrase before
the snowman melts. This would be a great game to play at home with your
child. It really makes them think about letters, words and how words
work. You can play this on paper but it would work better with a small
whiteboard or chalkboard since you are erasing parts of the snowman.
