Personal Pronouns Game (Whack-a-Mole)

Whack-a-Mole-Style Game on Personal Pronouns

home▸sitemap▸games & tests ▸personal pronouns game (whack-a-mole)

Here is an interactive game to help you learn or teach personal pronouns.

This game is an adaptation of the classic arcade game Whack-a-Mole where players use a soft mallet to hit mechanical moles that pop up randomly from holes on the game board. In the arcade version of the game, the idea is to hit every mole. This version is harder! In this game, the objective is to "whack" (actually pop) only the bubbles that contain personal pronouns.

If you pop a bubble that doesn't contain a personal pronoun or you let one return back to its clam, you lose part of one of your three lives.

Pop the bubbles with personal pronouns to score points.
You have three lives. You lose part of a life when:

You pop a bubble without a personal pronoun.
You allow a bubble with a personal pronoun to return to its clam.

Speed is rewarded. The faster you pop the bubble, the more points you score (ranging from 10 to 100).
You will earn 1,000 bonus points for popping five correct bubbles in a row without losing a life.
Beware! The level increases as the game goes on.
Can you get in the Hall of Fame? Good luck!
