How to Play Star Pathway - Sight Words

Each player picks their own colored counters (e.g., player 1 uses blue counters, player 2 uses red counters). Players take turns rolling a dice, then locate the row corresponding to the number they rolled. Once they find the row, they read the word out loud and place a counter on top of the word’s circle.

Here’s where it gets exciting! The goal is to cover all the circles in a pathway. The player who places a counter on the final circle wins that pathway’s star. The first player to collect 3 stars is declared the winner!

Customizable for Different Classrooms

One of the best features of Star Pathway – Sight Words is its flexibility. The game document can be easily edited, allowing teachers to input their own sight words. This makes it adaptable for different classroom needs, student abilities, and levels of learning. Whether you’re working with beginner readers or more advanced students, you can adjust the game to match your specific sight word list.
