Team Scrabble – A Great BIG Way for Schools to Enjoy the World’s Favourite Word Game


Scrabble, the game of words and wits, is now available as Team Scrabble: a giant edition perfect for playing in teams.

 

Scrabble is already used by hundreds of UK schools to help develop key skills including literacy, numeracy and problem solving and now this new edition can help build team-work skills too. 

 

Chairwoman of the Youth Committee of the World English-language Scrabble Players Association Karen Richards commented: “Scrabble is an excellent interactive educational tool that provides an exciting way for children to have fun learning.”

 

Just like Scrabble Original, Team Scrabble features the familiar board with triple and double word scores.  But, unlike the original, Team Scrabble is huge – almost 2 metres tall.

 

But its size is no gimmick – the giant board, letter tiles and letter racks introduces new ways to play:

  • Team Scrabble - players pool their brain power to compete in teams
  • Duplicate Scrabble - any number of players or teams compete to form words from just one set of letter tiles – but only the highest scoring word goes on the board. Duplicate Scrabble is fast-paced and there is no waiting for turns – everyone must try to find the best word in each round keeping all players entertained

 

Team Scrabble is priced at a special discounted rate of £495 (plus VAT) for schools providing a saving of £100 off the usual retail price of £595 (plus VAT).
