Long i Dice Games (FREE Printables)

By thisreadingmama Leave a Comment

We’ve been working through the Words Their Way long i (i_e) word sort over the last couple of weeks on our “lite” summer school schedule.

long i word sort from Words Their WaySince ALuv really enjoys playing games with dice (and because the word dice has the i_e pattern), I created three dice games for him to review the i_e pattern.

ALuv enjoyed each one. Here are some snapshots of him in action:

Twice as Nice game (2-4 players)

Hide the Word! (2-4 players)

hide the word long i gameCut out the gameboard per directions on the download. Roll two dice, add the sums, then read and hide (cover) the long i word, which corresponds to the number rolled.  For example, if you roll an 8, you read the word beside the number 8 (white in the picture above) and then cover it with the flap.  The first person who hides all his words is the winner.

Roll & Write a Sentence (independent work)

dice game with long i Roll the two dice.  Add the sums, then write the word into the missing blanks to spell a silly sentence using several long i words.  (This activity should look familiar if you’ve used any of my free Phonics by The Book curriculum.  

YOU CAN DOWNLOAD ALL THESE GAMES FOR FREE HERE.

Before doing the WTW word sort & these activities with ALuv, we spent a week working through this Long i packet.
