Sticks and Stones Game

Help your students learn alphabetical order with a matching game! In teams, students match sticks, or author names, with stones, or letters. Three different levels of matching help students alphabetize to the first letter, second letter and third letter. The game includes six sets of 51 sticks, each with the name of a popular children’s author, plus 26 stones, each with a letter of the alphabet. Game by Pat Miller. Illustrated by Debra Neu.
