Family Game Time | NPT3

Season 2022 Episode 12

To try this literacy tactic, ask an older child to read the game instructions aloud and encourage everyone to ask questions to make sure they understand the game rules. Then, parents can encourage children to read cards or headings on the board as they play the game. Keeping score can also help children develop handwriting, spelling and counting skills.
