Growing up, I learned many fun sayings that were supposed to help with spelling.
Do you recognize any of them?
When two vowels go a walking, the first vowel does the talking?
Because lets face it, in English there are always exceptions.
And while these rhymes may work some of the time, they dont always.

We see this in words like neighbor, weigh, and vein.
And we see that with the ei.
So it is important that we spend time teaching this fun vowel team.
And you are ready to go.
Player one begins by spinning the spinner.
Wherever the spinner lands, is the word that they need to read aloud.
Once the word is read aloud, they move up the game board until they land on that word.
If they land on an arrow, they may follow that arrow to a new space.
The second player does the same thing, and they continue to take turns.
