To Play

To play the puzzle matching game, print the puzzle pieces on card stock. Cut and laminate them so they can be used over and over again. Have the student mix up the pieces and choose one.

This student chose a picture of a fox. They will then search in the puzzles pieces for the word fox and match the puzzle together.

The students will continue matching the puzzles until their all matched up. If the students haven’t learned all of the short o words yet, start with just a few that they know, and build upon as they learn more.
