This is an INCREDIBLE website that NSharoff (http://twitter.com/nsharoff) from New York has shared with me!
It lets you as a parent or teacher create spelling lists, then the kids can have the program "teach" them the words. Then, they can play games like hangmouse and a lot of others to learn the words. I am using this with my son and was so happy when nsharoff forwarded it, I could have just flipped!

Cool website from a professional developer in australia with a lot of links to websites he's tested.
Dungeon Game I played as a kid.
To see how far we've come, look at this game that we used to play on our computers from about 15-20 years a go. I LOVED this game! Look at how human machine communications has evolved as have games evolved.
