Granny's Candies: The Delicious Game of Word Meanings

Combine the excitement of picking colorful "candy" tokens from Granny's candy jars with hundreds of opportunities to expand word meaning (semantic) vocabulary skills. First, you fill up the "candy jars" with "candy" (soft, foamy, and colorful tokens). Then players choose question cards from one of eight semantic areas (or mix and match cards, as desired). Students answer the questions, roll the die, and pick "candy" from the jars. The player with the most candy at the end of the game wins. You receive 672 word-meaning cards (84 for each area below): What belongs in this group? Which one doesn't belong? Give a describing word. How are they alike? What do these have in common? What is this used for? How are they different? Give an action word.
