ABC Mania

A simple search-and-click game that practices the alphabetical order.

birgirbac.github.io/abc

Click the next alphabet letter as fast as you can and get points!

There are three levels, Big letters, Small letters and Mixed Letters.

Perfect for those kids who need to practice the ABCs but are tired of the song.

ALSO ADDED A BACKWARDS ABC CHALLENGE!

    a very 'icelandic' idea! (wink, wink)

    How neat! Thank you for sharing!

  4. Aurora Edutainment February 15, 2023

  5. Driedgrapes February 17, 2023

    Lol..nice game. I myself was on the edge of my seat trying to do it so I know the kids are gonna love it

  6. KobeALT February 17, 2023

    This is actually hilarious how bad I am. Excellent game!

  7. GaeilgeAmee February 17, 2023

    It's official, I am worse at this game than my students are! So much fun! Thank you!

    my 2nd grade special support class has always been particularly uninterested in english and more interested in games like fornite and apex. I was actually able to get them to play this game under the premise that it was god for practicing aiming in those games. its a miracle :')

    Wonderful! I'll be playing it with my kids next class! The only thing I'm nervous about is in the option aBc with mixed letters, since it's a sans serif font, it's hard to tell between a big i and little L, for example: Il. I refreshed and it happened at least every 5-8 refreshes.

  11. Aurora Edutainment February 20, 2023

    @MinamiCat I'll change the font to something more readable as soon as I can. (Probably Wednesday)

  12. MinamiCat February 21, 2023

    @AuroraEdutainment Thanks a bunch! No rush- my next class with them isn't until next week!

    I had so much fun playing this game but github is blocked on the children's computers. Do you have any other way to host it? I would be eternally grateful.

  14. Jed222 February 22, 2023

    thanks

  15. jappy February 22, 2023

    This is great! But I suggest changing the font size and removing the underline because sometimes the students got confused about the letters "i" and "l", and how the letter "a" should be properly written in the alphabet as well. Thank you!

  16. Aurora Edutainment February 22, 2023

    Changed the fonts. Should be easier to distinguish between I, l and i :D

  17. Aurora Edutainment February 22, 2023

    @KobeALT maybe try https://auroraedutainment.itch.io/abc-mania :D

  18. KobeALT February 24, 2023

    Unfortunately that one is blocked even on the teacher network! The original ABC Race works fine on both. I don't know what that was hosted on.

  19. Aurora Edutainment February 24, 2023

    @KobeALT I think the creator of the original ABC Race has his own paid hosting. I need to start going that route soon...

  20. OdafromTaijima April 24, 2023

    Wow this is awesome!

  21. mikziraco September 20, 2023

    such a great game! my students have been using this for a quite a while now.. however, just recently there seems to be an error as it doesn't show the letters in the boxes rather it's just all white squares in the boxes. Hoping creator could fix it.

  22. RedMusashi13 September 28, 2023

    I'm just getting a black screen when I try to launch the game, on both links. Anyone else?

  23. murasakimochi October 11, 2023

    Thank you for this one! I wonder why I couldn't find the link to ABC Race though (also Earthiverse's profile :( I used it once but forgot to save a copy of the qr code .

  24. yelrm December 22, 2023

    Hello! This is such a good idea! Thank you so much for this! However, I'm planning to use this for my special needs class and would be eternally grateful if the fonts were changed to the font usually used in their textbooks, like Handwriting WeCan or UD デジタル 教科書体.

    This saved my life today as my fourth graders have been rough. I was surprised everyone was playing! My only wish is that the game modes could be separate. I wanted to challenge them to only do lowercase letters and compete for a high score, but they would switch to the much easier capitals and quickly do the hiragana to feign that they got the high score fairly. My students do not follow an honor system of any kind xD

    For my first class I had my score on the board for the students to beat, then I had each consecutive class try to beat the other class's high scores.
