One student is red and the other student is yellow. The students take turns and say a word. If the word is read correctly, the student can put a counter on that space. The other student gets a turn and place a counter on the space if they say the word correctly. If a student says a word incorrectly, they do not get to place a counter on the space and it is the other person’s turn. The game continues until one student has four counters in a row across, diagonally, or up and down.
