How to play Avian Word Challenge
Do you like word searches with a challenge? This is the game for you. The word bird will guide you through this fun game and help you practice spelling, too!
To play, look at the image above the word search. Then, find the word for the image in the word search. To highlight the word, simply tap and drag. When you’ve found the right word, it will turn yellow and the word bird will send you a new word.
This game helps young children practice spelling and letter recognition, as well as build their vocabulary. Students learning English as a second language can also learn new words through this activity. Plus, word searches offer the chance for beginning readers to build confidence in their skills. Here are some strategies you can use with students who need help with word searches:
Ask students to start by finding the first, and possibly second, letter of the word.
Have students work in pairs.
Have students write down the word first, before finding it. Or, write down the word for students to use as a reference.
