Pair It! Parrot! Fry Words 32-63

This is our newest super fun Pair It! Parrot! game. This version of the game includes Fry words 32-63. It also includes the original Kat and Squirrel (and Parrot) story. And the bonus is an ABC order (first letter only) using 6 of the words from the game. Practicing Fry words is a cinch while playing either with a small group or in pairs.

Materials Needed:
Print the game cards on heavy paper. (Optional: Flip paper and print page 12 on the back of each paper.) Cut out and stack. There will be 31 cards. So one will not be used per game.

Directions
Small Group Play:
Teacher deals 2 cards face up making sure all players can see the cards.
Players scan the 2 cards looking for matching words.
When a players sees a match, he or she says the word.
If correct, that player keeps the cards (or not - you decide). If they say the correct word at the same time, the teacher announces a tie and places the cards back into the deck.
Keep playing until the teacher is out of cards. If playing competitively, players count cards and the one with the most cards is the winner. There will be one card left at the end.

Two-Player Game:
All cards are dealt so that players have an equal number. Place extra card to the side.
Each player places his or her pile of cards face down between the players.
Both players flip the top card from their piles and place it face up so that both players can see both cards.

When a players sees a match, he or she says the word.
