Teacher Created Resources Word Shark Short Vowels Game

The fun begins when each player chooses a Word Shark mat. Player 1 draws a consonant tile from the pile and tries to add it to a word ending on his or her mat to make a word. If the letter cannot be used to spell a word it is returned to the pile. Then the next player draws a tile and tries to make a word. The first player to fill a mat with words wins!
