Comments from The Teachers' Choice Award Panel


What aspects of the product did you like the most?

• "The best part of this product is all the cards with vocabulary words and definitions. These could be used in a different way effectively."



• "I like that this game is multi-age, multi-leveled. Any and everyone can play! I also like that it does not take hours to play, but you can start easier, and make the questions progressively harder as you play more rounds."



• "The whole family enjoys playing this game."



• "This game taught my niece a lot of different vocabulary words and has increased her word knowledge. Several of the teachers have commented on her increase in vocabulary and the fact that she uses the words carefully."




Did you find the product interesting or motivating for children?

• "The best part of this game is that the kids are practicing vocabulary without even knowing it. They feel proud of themselves when they answer correctly and proceed to win the game. They seemed to be intrigued by the cards at the higher levels."



• "The product did interest my niece and once she learned the vocabulary and realized she used them correctly she wanted to learn more."

What skills could the product teach?

• "Using the cards alone, could help with vocabulary as students learn words and definitions. Thinking on their feet, learning new vocabulary and practicing things they have already learned are just a few things the children can learn from this game."



• "They learn the organization and order of playing a board game. Also how to skip a turn, which develops patience."
"The product taught vocabulary skills in an easy way. It was simple to play and kept the interest of everyone playing."



If funds were available, would you recommend parents buy or use this product with children at the appropriate grade/age level?

• "I think this is a unique game for all families to have. It can grow with the family, doesn't take hours to play, and it is great for almost all ages to enjoy. There are also many different twists you can add to the game to make it more interesting."



• "I would recommend this product. If you have children that keep using the same words over and over and want them to gain new words or phrases, then this is the game to play. It will do the job and be fun at the same time."
