Ender Bender

Ender Bender is a card game designed to help students understand and apply the basic spelling rules. It consists of 72 cards which contain either a base word, prefix, suffix or a rule card.

The object of the game is to be the first player to use all the cards in your hand by adding prefixes and/or suffixes onto base words. As a part of this process players must also obey the spelling rules. So for example, before adding ‘ing’ onto ‘hope’ players must also have the card ‘e’ goes away.
