Increasing literacy with The Fidget Game

Help me give my students fun ways to increase literacy skills through play with The Fidget Game.

My Project

When your students like to play games, love pop-its, and need an increase in literacy skills, you think outside the box. That's where your generosity would potentially help maximize projected growth of the students.

Each game in 'The Fidget Game' line has been designed with a specific purpose in mind.

Designed by a Reading Specialist to bridge gaps, build skills, and boost confidence in today's learners. It's a brilliant way to increase knowledge while using hands-on manipulatives in an exciting and interactive way.

For example, 'Sneaky Elves' encourages beginning readers to learn and practice CVC words and short vowel sounds. Where 'Rocket Race' focuses on number literacy, which is absolutely crucial for our students and can be played by multiple skill levels at once.

By bringing these games into my classroom and school, I believe that every student will benefit from having the opportunity to play these games to some capacity. I'm encouraged thinking about the potential growth that we can turn into confidence for the students.
