Games, Games, Games!

    This week we started practicing B's vocabulary words using a coin-flick board game such as the one in the photo. He would flick a coin and whichever picture it landed on would determine which sentence he had to say and write down. 
    The images showed the classroom objects he has already practiced along with either a checkmark or a 'x'. The checkmark means "Yes, I do have _________" while the 'x' means "No, I do not have _________." For example, if the coin landed on a pencil with a 'x', B would say "Yes, I do have a pencil." He would then have to find the corresponding words and write it down in his notebook.
    B really enjoyed playing the board game. He would get excited about each shot and even started making goals for himself. He attempted to follow a "yes" "no" "yes" no" pattern in his sentences and would purposefully shoot at the words which still gave him trouble.
    As before, B still has troubles with the words "crayon" and "ruler". He can identify  a "textbook" and a "notebook" now, but occasionally mixes them up. He still repeats the words to himself to try and fix them in his memory. After a final review of the words next week, I plan to introduce a new word set.
