Double Vowels and Split Digraphs
This is a board game that allows your children to work on double vowel and split digraph sounds.
The children will place their counters on the start block. Once they land on a step, they must say a word that has the sound in it and write it on the word sheet provided. If they get the word right, they stay on the block. If they get the word wrong, they move back to their last block. If the children land on the long blocks and get the word right, they slide to the block to the right. The first person to get to the Teaching Cave logo wins.
The word sheet provided allows the teacher to keep track of the words they are generating.
You can edit this document to suit your class.
