Word Games - Hangman. Just Crosswords: Create Custom Crossword. Larry Ferlazzo’s Websites of the Day… - The Best Sites For Making Crossword Puzzles & Hangman Games. I’ve already posted a list of sites where both teachers and students can make more sophisticated online games that would be useful for language development — The Best Websites For Creating Online Learning Games. Today, I’d like to create another “The Best…” list, this time focusing on more simple and “old-fashioned” word games like crossword puzzles and hangman. I’ll share places where you can create these games for free and have them hosted online so anyone can play them at anytime and will also list sites that allow you to easily create the games, but for printing out hard copies only. Either way, the only way I think these activities provide occasional useful learning opportunities is when students create the games themselves.

Then, they can share them among their peers. A speed competition can be a lot of fun. Personally, though, I don’t think anything beats a game of hangman on a classroom whiteboard with students divided into groups. Hangman.io has lots of hangman games. Related.
