Educational Games
Educational games are great informal skill assessments, serves as an engaging form of reinforcement and drilling exercise. The games should be suited for various learning styles. Boys particularly seem to enjoy kinesthetic activities. While playing the game, math for example, I have many teachable moments as I encourage students to do mental math. For younger students, I encourage them to use their fingers to count up or down. I combine the educational game with other games "silent ball" as a reward. Once the word "game" is used with any classroom activity, of course the students are in. They are learning, practicing as you teach, reinforce and assess. It is a win, win!
