Many students struggle with word finding difficulties. This is when a student has the knowledge, but they are not able to express it. They may not, for example, be able to access the name of a good friend or even an everyday object. This can be very frustrating and when put under pressure this difficulty tends to worsen. Therefore, a student may know the content for a test, but they may not be able to access it without a word bank. So what can we do to help strengthen this cognitive processing area in a way that won’t be too frustrating?
Here are 4 games that can be purchased on Amazon.com that will help in the process. I have had great success with all four of them! If you know of some others, please let me know.
1) Hey, What’s the Big Idea:
2) Word Shuffle:
3) Spot it:
4) Scattergories:
