Description: Have "old school" fun with this game of dots and boxes while targeting articulation skills. Available in 15 individual decks or one bundle at 40% savings. Targets include: /r, l, s, z, f, v, k, g/, "sh, th, ch, j," and /r, l, s/ blends. Step 1: Decide which animal each player will be, and who will go first. Step 2: Players take turns moving vertical or horizontal lines to connect dots. To target articulation skills, the players describe the position of the line they place. Step 3: The object is to complete as many boxes as you can, so try NOT to make the 3rd line in a box, because the next player will complete it. Step 4: When a player completes the 4th line in a box, they place their animal character inside the box to claim it. The player who completes a box continues to play until they can't complete any more. Step 5: Players continue to take turns, completing and filling as many boxes as they can until all are filled. Step 6: Once all boxes are filled, each player counts the number of completed boxes with their animal character. The player who completed the most boxes wins the game. **Note: This product has been modified from its original version to include updated graphics and improved readability of text/larger font.
