ABSTRACT:
A game apparatus is provided in which a special game element is included. The game element comprises decks of cards or the like having spelling words of varying complexity contained therein. Each deck includes words to be spelled which are grouped in accordance with a specific level of academic achievement. Thus one deck may contain words to be spelled by a second grade student, another deck for a third grade student and so forth. At the beginning of the game, the players select a deck which represents their level of learning and that deck is used in the random selection of words throughout the game. When a player performs a desirable act in the playing of the game, such as moving to a lucky space on a gameboard, he may keep that move only upon successfully spelling a word selected from his preselected deck of cards. While the decks may be used in many types of games, the invention is particularly described herein in terms of a baseball game.
