Player 1 rolls the die and moves that many spaces. They pick the top card and place it on the dry erase mat. 1) They say the word for the picture. 2) Map the word by pulling down counters for each sound by saying the phoneme they are mapping. 3) Graph the word into its phoneme parts and write them in the boxes 4) Write the whole word on the line. If the player does this correctly, they stay at the spot they moved. If they don’t, they move back to the spot they were on before. Player 2’s turn. First player to the finish WINS!
