Scrabble is an excellent game. Boggle and Upwords are good too.

A decade ago to learn English, you had to attend costly English classes or purchase course material like tapes and books. Now you can learn English for free from the comfort of your home using the Internet. The BBC and the British Council offer a number of on line courses, which teach written and spoken English. You can also improve your English by watching television programs and reading English newspapers. For more information, visit http://tinyurl.com/qnzpt

My students (grade 12) love to play Lingo -5 letter words where you give them the first letter of the word and they have to keep guessing until they get the secret word. Each time they get a correct letter from the secret word it is highlighted in red (proper position) or yellow (in the word but different position) - you can get a feel for the game at gsn.com
We also play BINGO for grammar, spelling, etc. I call out a word or phrase and in order for them to get it correct/place a chip down they have to tell me where the punctuation goes, proper spelling, letter combinations (phonics).
Of course you can pretty much modify any game to work in a classroom you just have to be creative. Memory card game for instance where you could have phonetic sounds match particular words ie:ph with phone
Good luck
