Each set of cards will contain all letters of the alphabet. The teacher will write a word, such as "bag", on the board. At the sound, "Go", each group will be instructed to form the word using the index cards. The first group to correctly spell the word earns one point. The game continues until ten points are earned by one of the groups.
