Teachers instructions
Pronounce a word or short sentence with a spelling that
you want to test them on and get students to write it down
in their homework. They then have to convert each letter
into a number, add up the numbers, and shout out the
total. If they have the right total, that must mean that they
have spelt the word correctly.
This is obviously also good for numbers practice, but can
also be used for words that they already know how to spell
but have problems recognizing due to minimal pairs etc.
You can also use it as a lead into homophones.
