THE VERY Smart CATERPILLAR Game
Assembly tip: Print the game board on cardstock and laminate to make it extra sturdy. To make game
pieces, cut out the food and clip them with small binder clips. Then squeeze the metal tabs to detach them
from the clip like this:
Materials:
• A game board, die and playing pieces for each group.
• Optional: A follow up worksheet and pencil for each student.
Type the words you want your kids to practice on the getting started page. They’ll automatically load into
the game board.
Have players take turns moving their
playing piece the number of spaces
they roll on their die. When they land
on a space, they’ll read the word out
loud and spell it. Then they’ll write the
word on their record sheet. If a
player lands on a piece of fruit with a
hole in it, she loses her next turn while
she rests to eat.
The first player to make it to the
butterfly wins the game.
