Ideas for Using the Games
Word Mazes:
p. 5 Use for sight words. Type the featured sight word in the
editable field at the top of the page. Make a clear path from start to
finish by typing the sight word inside the circles. In the remaining
circles, type incorrect spellings of the sight word. For example, if your
learner is working on
they
, incorrect spellings could be
thy
,
the
,
them
,
htey
,
thay
, etc. Your learners should follow the correct spelling of
they
through the maze from start to finish.
p. 6 Use for phonics words. Type a featured phonics word in the
editable field at the top of the page. Make a path from start to finish
by typing words that have the same vowel sound and/or vowel pattern.
In the other circles, type other phonics words or sight words that dont
have that vowel sound.
Example 1: If you type
hat
as your featured phonics word, other
words that have the same vowel PATTERN could be
bag
,
lap
, or
mat
.
Words that do NOT have the same sound could be
dog
,
hit
, or
hot
.
Example 2: If you type
eat
as your featured phonics word, other
words that have the same vowel SOUND (long
e
) could be
bead
,
key
,
or
Pe te
. With this example, youre going for the same sound, not
necessarily the same visual pattern.

Roll & Race
Roll a die. Look at the first box in the row that matches the
number you rolled. Read the word. Continue rolling,
reading, and racing until you have a row that takes first,
second, and third place.

Acorn BUMP!
Fo r 2 P l a ye r s : Roll two dice. Add up the numbers. Find the acorn on the board that
matches the sum you rolled and read it. If you read it correctly, place an object on top
of the word. The second player does the same thing, but can “bump” the other
players object if he rolls the same sum and also reads the word correctly. Whoever
has the most of their objects on the board after 10 minutes is the winner!
