The Word Workshop

Four workbenches of wordplay built from real newSchoolWorks English lessons — collect words, stretch sentences, climb story mountains, and hunt verbs. Made for grades 3–6: short rounds, big words, no wrong answers.

FLASHCARDS

The Word Collector

Build your own deck from words hiding in the lesson titles — wager, pursuit, claim, detail, inference, evidence. Flip, quiz, shuffle, then duel: which word carries more?

SENTENCE PLAY

Stretch the Sentence

EN3's “Stretch it” move: take a tiny sentence and grow it with who, where, when, why and how cards — then read it aloud to the room.

STORY STRUCTURE

Story Mountain

Place the eight real lesson titles of “Eighty Days” and “The Holmes Method” on the story mountain — beginning, climb, problem peak, descent, ending.

WORD HUNT

Verb Hunt

EN3's “Verb hunt”: find the verbs hiding in the hall claims and the exhibit-story focus lines. Tap a word — if it acts, it lights up.

LIVE FROM THE SCHOOL API

Real lessons, playable offline

Every game tries the live School API first (https://newschoolworks.com/api/v1) and falls back to bundled JSON, so the workshop keeps working with no connection. Curriculum text © newSchoolWorks.com (Urbanicity).
