Text Twist – create as many 3, 4, 5, and 6 letter words as you can within 2 minutes. Very addictive. Appropriate for any ages above middle school. Helps you to see new patterns and possibilities.No Judaic content, and cannot be modified by the teacher. Railroad Tycoon - The objective of the game is to build and manage a railroad company. The game teaches supply and demand of goods and passengers and the functioning of a miniature stock market. Very good, if cartoon-like, graphics and sound effects. I think it may be a little complex for seventh graders, but it can be a lot of fun.  Hebrew Keyboard Tutor Plus! – an online Flash game that teaches touch-typing for the Israeli keyboard. Oddly compelling, even though the graphics are amateurish. My daughter taught herself to touch-type in Hebrew using it. http://www.zigzagworld.com/HKTutor/
