Publisher's Description of Fidget Game: Sight Word Edition
MAKES LEARNING FUN AND EXCITING When learning is fun, kids spend
hours playing educational games instead of mindlessly staring at
electronic devices.
READERS ARE LEADERS! It’s
well-known by teachers that the best readers become leaders in the
classroom because reading builds confidence. Help your child become a
future leader today!
BACKED BY RESEARCH! The Fidget game follows the Science
of Reading (SoR). Our game uses the Heart Word Method and teaches
children how to read decodable words (words that can be sounded out) and
non-decodable words (heart words- the words they need to know by
heart).
BENEFICIAL TO CHILDREN WITH DYSLEXIA Learning to decode sight words is helpful to children with dyslexia and other learning difficulties.
GREAT FOR ALL YOUNG READERS The
Fidget game consists of 220 sight words broken down into grade levels
from Pre-K to Grade 3, following the US common core standards. What’s included in the kit:
5 packets of sight words broken down per grade level (total of 220 words).
Take decoding, blending letters, CVC words, sight words, and
reading fluency and add a dash of silicone fidget poppers and you get Fidget
Games! Using word cards, students use their poppers to recognize letters, read
small words and even apply spelling patterns. Each game is very easy to
understand and play, yet different every time with the various combinations of
cards, colors and poppers! A QR code on the insert takes you to free
worksheets online.
