Parts of Speech #22

Open petergault opened 9 years ago

petergault commented 9 years ago

Let's build a game where students tag a sentence with various parts of speech.

Three possible interfaces:

  1. The student selects one of three options from a menu.
  2. Students drag the part of speech word from a wordbank onto the word.
  3. The is given a blank textbox where she has to type in the correct word.

We could possibly use all 3 modes - they go from least difficult to most difficult.

Playing With Difficulty

How to play with the difficulty:

  1. Let's start with simple sentences, and sequence out 50 sentences of increasing complexity (different words).
  2. You can take the same word and show how it's a different part of speech in different contexts.
