What is the Antonym? LET’S ROLL
Description
Roll the dice and move around the game board, which features mini worlds taken from the other digi-games. Each roll takes players on an exciting journey through oceans, deserts, and race tracks as they collect points by answering language-based questions correctly. The more you get right, the more treasure you collect—game on!
In this version, students answer multiple choice questions focused on identifying antonyms. With each question, they’ll select the word that means the opposite of the target word. This builds vocabulary, improves reading comprehension, and helps students strengthen their understanding of word relationships.
Let’s Roll – What is the Antonym? is perfect for small-group literacy rotations, whole-class activities, or independent practise using the QR code. Students build their language skills while racing to become the top scorer on the board!
