Advanced Scrabble
About the Course:
Students will be introduced to a variety of winning strategies and get practice using an extensive vocabulary, anagramming tricks, and in-class play. This course will be building off the beginner’s Scrabble course. The main goal of this course is for students to be able make quick and well thought out plays based on a large number of variables (probability and risk/reward). It is not necessary to take the beginner’s course, but you should be familiar with most of the topics.
Each class will consist of a lecture followed by a game of scrabble. During this time, the facilitator and TAs will individually help students use new strategies.
This class focuses on the strategies involving the standard 15x15 Scrabble board arrangement. Acceptable: original, Deluxe edition, and Folio edition. Be sure that you have access to the correct board. Students are expected to always bring their standard 15x15 Scrabble boards to class. The following are NOT suitable substitutes: electronic devices, Scrabble Junior, Express Scrabble, and Super Scrabble. If you are unsure if your board is acceptable, email me at calscrabble2@gmail.com.
Required materials: Official 15x15 Scrabble board.
