When the tapping stops, the teacher calls on a child to finish spelling the word out loud. If the child correctly finishes spelling the word, that child gets to call out a word and tap some of the letters. Students need a sheet of paper that has 9 or 25 blank blocks on it, and some small pieces of paper or objects to cover words as they fill in blocks. Call on students to pick words from the word wall they want included in the game. As each picks a word, everyone writes it in a blank of their choice.
Teacher writes it on an index card.
When all 9 or 25 blocks have been filled in on everyone's sheets, you are ready to play. Shuffle your index cards and call out each word. Students are to cover the words wherever they have written them. Students chant each word's spelling and then cover it. The first student to have a complete row covered wins.
