The 'Look, say, cover,
write and check' topic area aims to help students become familiar
with
this method for helping learners to spell words they find difficult.
In this section you'll find:
'Look, say, cover,
write and check' game
This is an interactive variation on the 'Look, say, cover, write
and check' method. Learners can choose a word list from a variety
of topics and then see different objects come out to cover the words.
There are 3 attempts to get the word right before the next word
will appear. This adds more of a game quality and challenge to the
activity.
TOP TIP!
To see the game completely full screen, press the F11 key on the
keyboard. This takes away the distraction of the top browser bar.
To bring the browser bar back, just press F11 again!
