Blend Ahead! A Consonant Blending Adventure
Young learners race around a 24-space board, landing on speaking prompts that feature consonant blends (str, spr, scr, spl, thr, etc.). Players must speak in complete sentences about real situations—asking partners questions, acting out blended-sound words, and working together as teams. Chance cards add surprises and keep the game lively.
