The number of letters that the base word has been extended by (k) and the number of letters (m) in the base word is used to determine the score for the play. The extension must augment the existing (base) word by two or more letters. 2) Suffix and/or prefix an existing (on the board) word by using at least one consonant from the rack.The number of letters (n) in the new word is used to determine the score for the play. The new word must have at least three letters. 1) Build off an existing (on the board) consonant and use at least one consonant from the rack.New words, consisting of any number of vowels and using consonants from his/her rack, can be built by a player in the following three ways: The second (and subsequent) player builds new words “off” the words already played on the board.

Next we used the rockets to play word I-spy games and raced to see who could find the words being said the fastest!įor more able children you could create longer words, or try using digraphs or trigraphs in the spaces.US20110248446A1 - Word tree built on consonant nodes Once they had built all the word rockets they sounded each one out by pointing at the individual letter sounds and blending them together to say the words. Onto each one I wrote out a simple CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) word, and then mixed all the separate pieces up to be reconstructed into rockets flying through into space! For the base board I simply taped pieces of black card together at the back and drew some gold stars on the front. If you look closely at the pictures you should hopefully see what I mean! This made sure that each rocket shape could only be joined to itself and not any other. For e.g., one rocket was joined by zig-zags, another by waves, square pegs, triangles etc. I cut each rocket shape into thirds, making sure to cut a different pattern with the scissors each time to turn them into unique puzzle pieces. We made a fun space rocket themed spell and read game from patterned papers, black card, tissue paper and marker pens! To make this for the girls I cut out 8 different rocket shapes from a variety of patterned, coloured papers, with a point on the front piece of each. Create a simple DIY literacy game for spelling and reading small words with this fun, space rocket themed puzzle game! It can be adapted for different stages of ability and changed to suit different topics or particular interests to get kids excited about learning!
