This is a simple word game that everyone can play. Give each student a piece of paper and pencil, invite them to write their first and last names at the top of the page. Then, using only the letters in their names, see which student can create the most words from those letters. This is a simple form of Scrabble or Banana Grams that can be played on a bus, van or at a retreat. Better yet, no preparation is required.
