Teacher Created Resources Synonyms Splat™ Game Grades 2+ (EP62062)

Educational and Fun: Help your young learners show off their vocabulary skills with this educational card game. This box offers three games in one, with each new game adding a unique set of challenges. Splat! makes learning fresh, fast-paced, and fun.

How to Play: The game has 1 caller and 2–6 players. Each player is given 4 or more answer cards. When the caller reads aloud a task from a calling card, the players quickly check their cards to see if they have a card that completes the task. If they do, they yell “Splat!” and flip over the card. The first player to turn over all of their cards is the winner.

What’s Inside the Box: Each box contains 225 cards, divided into three color-coded decks. Each deck includes 25 calling cards and 50 answer cards. An instruction sheet gives quick, easy-to-follow directions for setting up and playing the game. Answer keys for all three decks are included on the back of the instruction sheet.

Three Different Vocabulary Challenges: Each color-coded deck contains a unique set of synonyms. There are two synonyms for each word located on a calling card. For the Green Deck, players look for synonyms of such words as fast, difficult, and fix. For the Red Deck, players must find synonyms for such words as empty, create, and burst. For the Purple Deck, players search for the synonyms of such words as earlier, complete, and secret.

Ready to Go: This simple yet fun game takes almost no time to learn and set up. Within minutes of opening the box, young learners can be ready to compete and show what they know. Splat! can be easily modified to make it more or less challenging for the players.

Useful and Practical: This game was designed by teachers for teachers and parents (and kids!). In the classroom, use these cards in small groups. They are also great for homeschool environments and for game nights at home. Splat! is even perfect for those on the go: it’s an educational resource that is practical, portable, and fun.

Age Range: Synonyms Splat! is ideal for young learners in second grade, third grade, fourth grade, and above. Even adults will have fun finding matches and yelling “Splat!”
