Expression of the Week Game

Posted in every classroom is a sign with the phrase "Expression of the Week" that we post a sentence for the children to study. The Korean teachers translate the phrase, teaching the students how to use it, and you can slowly start to build conversations out of the phrases the longer the student stays at the school.

One of the easiest time wasters in class is to write a phrase on the board and have the students find as many words using those letters. Today, Alynne, my Korean teaching partner, was using the phrase "Expression of the Week" to mix and match to make more words with. Kurt decided he was going to find as many words as he could from the phase, and started writing down words while his students did their work. He came to me with about 60 words down on paper, and by the end of the day the two of us had over 250+ words easily combined.

Try it for yourself...and if anyone can beat the 250 total with a supplied list, I'll post my words as well, admit defeat, and give praise via a link to your website. The rules:
1. No proper nouns
2. No names.
3. Two letter words.
4. Plurals don't count double.

I expect the response to this challenge to be absolutely nill, which is understandable if you have ajob, or life, that prevents you from counting a massive amount of words from a phrase, so if I get several lists of 250+ words in my email it might take me a few days to sort out who is the winner...
