BRING BACK ALL BOOKS AND CHROMEBOOKS!
LET’S PLAY SCRABBLE. This time it’s for real!
- Each person draws a letter. The letter closest to A goes first. (Blank beats A.)
- Draw continues clockwise (to the left) after that.
- If no one volunteers, the person with the letter farthest from A is scorekeeper.
- Put those letters back and draw seven (7) each.
- Keep score like this (don’t write what’s in the parentheses):
| Jimmy (First Player) 17 (first turn) 6 (second turn) 23 (total so far) 14 (third turn) 37 (total so far) |
Johnny (Second Player) 23 15 38 7 45 |
- First player must put the word down with a letter on the Star (2x word) in the middle.
- Left to right, top to bottom; not diagonal, not bottom to top!
- Suggestion: no more than 2 minutes per person.
- NO! NO! NO!
- NO abbreviations or contractions
- NO foreign words
- NO proper nouns (nouns you would normally capitalize)
- (Check the dictionary.)
Multiplier squares are one use only!
