Countdown

This famous show has been on TV for many years. In 1991, a Spanish version of the show was released, called Cifras y Letras (numbers and letters).

The aim of the game is to come up with the longest word possible, using the 9 available letters.

It’s a race against time as the contestants only have 30 seconds.

After 30 seconds, each contestant must divulge their best word and then use it in a sentence.

Play it in class and learn more about spelling with this funny game.
