Memory Card Games
Memory card games can be used to work on several different areas, and for children that have a bit of a competitive streak, a fun way to engage them in a learning task! So many of the children I’ve worked with are often enticed to play as they are determined to get more matches than me, or Mum or Dad!
I use memory card games to develop language and to make an articulation activity a bit more exciting.
- Many memory card games come in different categories, which is great for working on vocabulary knowledge for areas such as animals/transport/fruit etc.
Children turn the card over and try to name the picture. To extend this I might ask if they can think of other things that could be within the category or group.
They could also use the word in a sentence.
- Articulation cards can be duplicated and used in a memory game, turn the card over and say the word or use it in a sentence.
The website www.busybeekidsprintables.com have free printable memory games in a range of categories.
