Another online hangman, and other word games.
Science Vocabulary Hangman, but they use a smiley face guy who loses parts and whose smile changes to sadness. Not traditional. 🙂
Stay Afloat works like hangman other than the art. There are various categories, notably WWII and Harry Potter. They give clues after a few misses, apparently two clues per play. That's fun. The only drawback is that even when the word is up there, you have to type it in the "guess" box to "win." So it's typing practice too.
You really can play hangman with a paper and pencil, but some kids haven't ever done it! It helps to write down the missed letters so they know what they've already guessed. When we played, we wrote them in the gallows' base, and kept the vowels separate from the consonants. (See top image for that method.)
