Today I’m sharing my final set of short vowel four-in-a-row games. They’re a fun (and quick!) way to review single-syllable short vowel words.
To play, print a board game of your choice. Then grab two do-a-dot markers. Other options include covering the words with small round manipulatives or coloring with regular markers or crayons.
Take turns reading the words and dotting with a do-a-dot marker.
The first to get four in a row, wins!
