For the teacher · In class

Spell a name aloud, slowly, and the class types what they hear in the chat. Then a student spells their own first name and everyone types that.  ·  The skill is saying it out loud: "My name is Ana. A – N – A."

Which letter?: play each speaker, or say the letter yourself on paper, and the class types it in the chat. Only three letters are possible in each box, so a wrong answer names the sound-alike to practice.
