'Phonics Game' The 'oy' and 'oi' phonics game Gurgling Gargoyle is loosely based on the card game 'Old Maid'. It is heaps of fun for all involved!
Preparation:
Print the cards onto thin card, laminate them and cut them out.
What You Need to Play:
One set of game cards
Two players
How to Play:
1. Two players sit facing each other.
2. One of the players shuffles a set of game cards then shares out the whole deck between the two players.
3. The players match all the pairs in their hands and place them off to the side saying 'oy as in voyage' etc as they place them down.
4. The players then hold the remaining cards in their hands and take turns picking one card randomly from the other person's hand.
5. As another pair is made the player places it down in the same way as before. Hint - if you manage to choose the gargoyle, it is a good idea to shuffle the cards in your hand to 'hide him better'.

The person left with the 'Gurgling Gargoyle' in their hand at the end of the game is the winner.

An excellent resource for practicing oy and oi phonics. I loved this as it is something just a little bit different. Thank you!!
Can we please leave out the gargoyles because I don’t feel they are at all appropriate in a school setting , young children don’t need to be scared when I’m trying my hardest to make learning fun. They lower the rating I gave. Thanks
