Pros & Cons
Pros
Wordical is a great way to teach children how to spell and increase vocabulary. This also helps keep kids or poor spellers doing well enough to rack up some serious points. Adjusted the rules slightly to fit a classroom setting.
Wordical combines playing cards (all consonants) with 2 vowel dice. The idea is combine vowels and consonants to make a word worth points. The vowel on each die can be used more than once to made a longer word.
The kids love this game and it is so good for reading and spelling. I think it's a simple, fun game, and it holds their interest while learning! Fun game and my 9yo loves it!
