Name of Resource: Merriam-Webster's Word Central
Url Address: http://www.wordcentral.com/games.html
Summary: This website allows students to build their own dictionary, explore daily buzzwords, and play various games that deal with language. It supplies educators with a list of links that relate to company information, educational resources, or other Merriam-Webster resources online.
Commentary: I really like the build your own dictionary aspect of this website. I think kids will enjoy exploring words and creating their own dictionary with their own definitions. This website is great for learning unique words and its definition. The games are also educational and help students with concepts such as antonyms, synonyms, and spelling. The thesaurus and rhyming tabs at the top where not working for me however. Therefore I would give this website an 8 out of 10.
