Help children with their spelling and vocabulary with this Word Ladder Activity. Suitable for all phonics phases.
How to play
Think of a four-letter ‘start’ and ‘finish’ word. Make a series of words by changing just one letter at a time that
changes the ‘start word’ into the ‘finish word’. The person with the fewest words (shortest ladder chain) wins!
Example – pain- rain- chain – main – mail – rail – tail – sail – pail – pain
