Cars Uno (Advanced Code)

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Zoom into the distance with a reading game based on Disney's Cars. Kids use the rules associated with Uno® to match either the character or the word on each card during their turn, or they can skip players, reverse the order, have another player draw four, or go wild!

Instructional Ideas

  • Send a copy of the cards home for kids to practice with parents
  • Incorporate the game into a car-themed classroom or unit
  • Use for reluctant readers who love the movie

Classroom Considerations

  • Some cards might be hard for kids to understand; consider writing the instructions on the whiteboard for easy reference
  • Cards are very colorful, which might be hard on your printer

Pros

  • Fun for learners of all skill levels
  • Ability to match either the word or the character helps to differentiate the activity for learners

Cons

  • None
