I never thought that "affect" and "effect" are homonyms... But is it really the case (in all variation of English)?

An absolutely wonderful project. I like that a teacher can easily modify it to add their own words and definitions.

Couple of thoughts, when I click on a word (left click or on Mac just click) I can edit the text. if you open the Object Catalog and click on find then type "text" you will see an object named "Text Rectangle" this has the nice behavior that you can simply click and drag to move it (no need to get the halo first as with Text.

Another thought would be to have a button "Check Answers" to start your scripts that show if you got it right. I have seen my kids play certain games where they simply keep trying until the color changes without thinking about what they are doing.

All in all a great project, I look forward to trying them with my kids. Thanks!!!
