Werewords
$14.95
Dustin recommends Werewords or Werewords Deluxe Edition (for a more robust experience) for reviewing vocabulary for English Language classrooms! It is one of his favorites because it is simple to teach, quick, and uses a communicative-based approach to teaching, while also reviewing vocabulary. It is great for reviewing vocabulary in other content areas too!
In Werewords, the hidden identity word game, players attempt to guess a secret word by asking `yes` or `no` questions. However, one of the players is secretly a werewolf who`s not only working against you, but also knows the word. Figure out the magic word before time runs out – or identify the werewolf in your midst – and you win!
A free iOS/Android app provides thousands of words in hundreds of categories at various difficulty levels, so everyone can play.

Trapwords
$17.95Add to cartDustin recommends Trapwords for an ESL classroom or for content-specific terminology review because it involves all players in the game and learning process at all times. It is an excellent game that includes different ways to think about words, reinforces listening comprehension, and implements peer-to-peer teaching!
Trapwords is a fun and fast-paced party game for two teams, who simultaneously prepare their lists of trapwords. The simple task of giving clues for your word is made fiendishly difficult by not knowing which words you can`t say. If you succeed, you advance to higher levels with more trapwords and additional challenges. Includes a set of regular words as well as a set with a fantasy theme.

Tim French –
Such a great game to ply with the family and get all ages thinking. We played with 2 adults, 4 kids aged 14, 13, 13, 10 and it so very fun to see how they tried to describe words. The app keeps everything organized so whoever has what role it is very easy for them.
