Word Families File Folder Games:

To set up the game: Print and laminate Pages 3-10.

I strongly recommend using card stock for the playing cards, so that students will not be able to see through them.

I love to print on the white side of one-sided scrapbook paper as this makes the cards opaque and attractive.

For 2-6 players

Instructions:

  • Shuffle word cards and place them upside down on the card box of the playing board.
  • Choose the first player.
  • Player 1 places their marker on the gingerbread boy and girl start position. The player to the left of Player 1 draws a card from the pile and without showing it to Player 1, reads the word aloud. Player 1 must spell the word either aloud or by writing it out.
  • If Player 1 spells the word correctly on the first try, he/she spins the spinner and moves ahead the number of spaces indicated. The game continues to the next player with the player to his/her left reading the word for the player to spell.
  • If a player does not spell the word correctly on the first try, they remain on the same square without spinning the spinner. The game continues to the next player.
  • The first person to reach the gingerbread house wins!
  • **When playing with only 2 players, the opposite player reads the card to the person spelling.

This game is great for sounding out CVC, CCVC, and CVCe words.

Ways to Differentiate:

  • Focus on beginning sounds instead of the entire word. You can have your students recall the letter that the word begins with rather than spell the whole word.
  • Focus on end sounds. Have students recall the letter that the word ends with rather than spell the whole word.
  • Only use vowel sound in the game. For example: only include words that have a medial “a” or “e”.

Great for a partner or small group center!
