Word Bubbles

Word Bubbles is set underwater. Bubbles float up from the ocean floor, each with a word inside, and you pop them by typing the word before they reach the surface. Each bubble that escapes is a miss; each streak of three or more popped bubbles in a row earns a small bonus. We chose common sight words for this game — the same vocabulary kids see in early readers — so typing practice doubles as reading review. Words get longer as the player improves, but never more complex than what a typical 3rd grader would read in class. Built for 2nd and 3rd graders working on word-level typing fluency.
