“When I originally began writing my curriculum, games were not slated to be a part of the program. It was a chance encounter with a former student who asked me if I still let my students play these games that helped me to realize what a powerful tool they truly are. Not only do these games reinforce phonics learning in a fun way, but they also give students an opportunity to practice social skills such as taking turns, resolving conflicts, and being good sports even when they lose.”
