Supplies Needed:

1 Copy of game board
!
Dice
!
A game piece for each player
!

Spelling lists based on the level of the different players. These can be written on notecards cut in
half or quarters to be used as the cards for the game.

To Play:

Each player takes a turn rolling a dice and moving their game piece. The other player chooses the
top word card for them. They have to follow the directions on the space they landed. If they get it
wrong they lose a turn. After three missed turns, they go back to start. Scratch paper can be used
to spell on paper before answering.
