The phonic element 'ar' is quite common and games like this generate the fluency needed for reading success. You can play with all ten boards as a whole class with players responsible for a row or column, or in small groups (particularly for intervention matching cards to boards prior to playing).

The words I have used are:

bark, car, hard, sharp, tart, barn, far, part, yard, shark, arm, yarn, park, start, dart, art, mark, card, lark, arch, dark, spark, harp, jar, farm, alarm, bar, march, cart, spar, carve, star, chart, snarl, large, charm, scarf, marsh, scar, charge, darn, barb, army, kart, smart, party, garden, marble, barber, archer, heart, parcel, carpet, dollar, target, artist, collar, garlic, harvest, darling

You can leave out boards and the corresponding cards without it affecting the game. The boards and cards have a discreet labelling system for you to easily sort the boards and cards to use in smaller groups.
