Connect 4 - Subject-Verb Agreement

In this game, two players take turns shading a grid. The aim is to be the first to create a line of four shaded cells in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

Game Instructions:

Gameplay:
Two players take turns selecting intersections on the grid. The goal is to create grammatically correct sentences in simple present tense. To achieve this, a player chooses an intersection, combining a subject, verb, object, and, when necessary, a preposition.

Note: Students should include a preposition in sentences that require it. For example, "She lives in Tokyo."

Winning:
If a player successfully forms a correct sentence, including the preposition when needed, they can shade the selected intersection. Continue until one player connects four shaded intersections in a row, either horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, akin to Connect Four.

Winning Example:
Player 1 forms the sentence "The cat eats fish" by selecting those three intersections and shades them, following the note's guidance. Player 1 wins if they connect four shaded intersections before Player 2.

Rules:

Sentences must be grammatically correct and in simple present tense.
Players must use the available subjects, verbs, objects, and prepositions on the grid.
The first player to create a winning sequence of four shaded intersections wins.
