House Games: In the way of practical help, suggest house games that could be played at home (e.g. word bingo or a cloze game where children fill in missing words or phrases), explaining the particular value of house games to a child with reading problems -namely that they're fun and so don't seem too much like hard work, and also that they have a useful repetitive, reinforcing function. When you recommend a game, try to explain just how it is designed to help. There are booklets and pamphlets available, which give ideas for house games that can easily be made and played at home (e.g. Hip Pocket Spelling house games series, New York, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1983).
The Commonwealth house games are open to member nations of the British Commmonwealth. Originally called the Empire house games until 1970, they were first held in Canada in 1930. They are nicknamed 'the Friendly house games'.Whilst representing Canada Lennox Lewis,
subsequently WBC world heavyweight champion, won the super-heavyweight boxing gold medal in 1986 at Edinburgh. |
