Did you know that October is National Popcorn Month?

(yes…popcorn)

Anyway, I just saw a really cool FREEBIE that I wanted to make sure you knew about! Marie Ripple over at All About Spelling is celebrating National Popcorn Month by giving away a FREE Popcorn Party Spelling Game!  It’s really cute and can be used for ANY spelling level.

Included is a game board (you can download the color or black and white) with popcorn word cards.  She’s included some words from the All About Spelling levels 3-5 but there are also blank ones that you can use to add your own words.  You could also just use index cards, the green AAS cards, or just call out words to each player as you go.

When the players reach the popcorn bucket at the end, they win!  Celebrate with a big bucket of popcorn at the end!  Isn’t that simple and fun??

What is All About Spelling?

I LOVE All About Spelling.  I’ve posted about it before and I have a link to their website along the side of my webpage.  I found AAS after looking and trying just about every spelling program out there with no success.  After we got AAS I saw an immediate improvement, PLUS I was amazing at how much I was learning! It was the perfect combination of phonics (and phonics rules) and an easy-going flexible curriculum.  There is no prep-time, lesson planning, or spending hours preparing manipulatives!  Just pick it up and go! The letter tiles are amazing and really do work to boost understanding.  At first I didn’t get the letter tiles, but after a while I purchased them and saw again a huge improvement!

If you’ve been looking for something for spelling…give them a try.  There’s no risk!  They offer a complete money-back guarantee for ONE YEAR!
