 Prove your vocabulary prowess with a game of checkers!

Before you begin, create your Vocabulary Checkers checkerboard by writing a different vocabulary word in each of the shaded squares. Place the vocabulary

board and checkers between you and your opponent (you can use pennies and nickels, two different colored dots, or classic check game pieces). The checker pieces

will only move on the shaded squares, so each player should set up their pieces on the 12 dark squares in the first three rows closest to him or her. Take turns moving

the checkers one space diagonally. When a player wants to make a move, she or he has to say a sentence using the vocabulary word on the space to which she or he

wants to move. A player who does not use the vocabulary word correctly in the sentence does not get to move. Likewise, if a player wants to “double jump,” she or

he must use both vocabulary words in the same sentence. If one of the words is used incorrectly, the move cannot be made at all. All other checkers rules apply!

The first player to remove their opponent’s pieces from the board wins. All other checkers rules apply!

1 Choose a vocabulary word to fill in each blank space. You may not use vocabulary words more than once.

2 Start with your marker at the Beginning Basin.

3 Roll the dice and move your marker that number of spaces forward on the board.

4 If you can answer the question on the new space correctly within one minute, then your marker may remain

on the square. If you cannot answer the question, you must go back to the space you were before you rolled.

5 Continue play until someone reaches Lake Lexion, then see who will finish second, third, etc.

To win, a player must complete the question on the Finish square.
