Features and Benefits

• Modify Games to Maximise Participation, Enjoyment and Success
  Simple instructions and lots of tips for customising the games are also included. Modify game play for students who have articulation problems, hearing impairments, low expressive and reception language skills, and mild to moderate cognitive impairment.

• Beyond Basic Bingo
  The bingo games help educators stimulate student interest in various themes and provide an excellent way for learners to practise describing.

  The bingo games can also be used to:
  

  • practise symbol identification and matching
    
  • auditory and visual attention
    
  • turn-taking and hand-eye coordination
    
  • peer-to-peer communication skills such as initiating, labelling, requesting, message repair, asking and answering questions, commenting and terminating interaction
  
  The experienced authors include a host of variations that they have used in their own classrooms to motivate and engage students.

  Multiple bingo boards are provided for each theme, and more can be quickly created using the Boardmaker templates.

• Mystery Games
  In these games, one player secretly selects four vocabulary items to set up a make-believe mystery that relates to a season, holiday or thematic unit. The rest of the group tries to guess what items were selected. These games can be incorporated with other activities, such as an art project.
  Mystery games encourage responses to questions and help users expand theme-related vocabulary.

• Repetition, Repetition, Repetition
  Print ‘n Play Games, Print ‘n Play Dice Games, Print ‘n Learn Community Units and Print ‘n Learn Thematic Units focus on shared themes. Use them together to provide varied multisensory exposure to new vocabulary and concepts in order to learn and retain words.

Suggestions are included to allow learners who use augmentative communication systems to actively participate.

The manual also provides advice for incorporating skills such as reading, writing, counting and following directions into thematic units.
