Game: Phonics Basketball Each team lines up, and each player receives a ball with a letter written on it. The player must say the sound associated with the letter and provide an example word. After that, they attempt to shoot the ball into the basket. Each successful shot earns two points for the team. The team with the highest total points at the end of the game wins.

Musical Chairs Game In this game, one student from each team is selected. They choose a ball from a basket, which has a new phonics word written on it. The student must say the phonics word on their ball. While the music plays, the students walk around the chair. When the music stops, the students try to sit on the chair. The student who successfully sits down earns points for their team.
