How to Play
Prepare Spelling Words:
Each player selects a set of spelling words that they want to practice and writes them down.
Create the Paper Aeroplane:
Fold a piece of paper into a paper aeroplane that can be easily thrown between players.
Taking Turns:
Players take turns throwing the paper aeroplane back and forth.
Call Out a Word:

Spell the Word:

Continue Playing:
