Used Canva AI to create a Galaxy Typing Challenge: 10 minimal pairs.

 In the following video, Ha Sir demonstrated how to create a Galaxy Typing Game using words from Integrated Science:

The essence of this game is that there will stars falling from above, and students have to type out the target word before the star reaches the bottom. 

I followed his idea, and created the following Galaxy Typing Challenge using Canva AI. I used the same 10 minimal pairs I used recently. 

=======

FIRST PROMPT: 

reate a typing challenge game, where 20 stars will fall from the sky very slowly one after another. The 20 stars represent the 20 words below. When each star falls from the sky in the order of the words below, it will be accompanied by its British English pronunciation two times. students, who are studying in primary school, listen and they are required to type the word in a box at the bottom of the page, to remove or explode the falling star. Please create a galaxy style background for the game. Show the scores on the screen at the end of each round, as well as the incorrect words typed. The 20 words: sit, seat, cod, cord, bet,

bat, pull, pool, men, man, cut, cart, live, leave, pin, pan, bull, ball, heart, hot

================

 I went thru 3 to 4 revisions before I made do with the following output:

OBSERVATIONS

- Getting the desired accent (in my case, BrE) could be a problem. Even though I specified BrE., the pronunciations did not always match my expectation.
