  • Memorial Day Weekend Off Right with Hasbro Games at Home Or Away - You Won't Be Sorry!
    May 27, 2010 Start Memorial Day Weekend off Right with Hasbro Games at Home or Away - You Won't Be Sorry! EAST LONGMEADOW, Mass., May 27, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) --According to AAA, more than 32 million travelers are expected to travel on vacation over Memorial Day weekend - a 5.4 percent increase from 2009. Whether traveling to beaches, camping grounds or U.S. attractions, Hasbro has your family fun covered! When packing, toss in some of Hasbro's newest games to keep everyone engaged and entertained on the open road, in the air, and once you've reached your final destination. "While the economy continues to be rocked by occasional waves of uncertainty, improved economic performance from one year ago should cause more Americans to take vacations this Memorial Day holiday," said Mary Yarber, Director, Program Management for AAA. "Whether traveling to see loved ones or exploring a new travel destination be sure to plan ahead for the most enjoyable vacation by taking advantage of AAA traveling planning tools and discounts on hotels, car rentals and attractions. Be sure to pack a vacation survival kit that includes activities for the whole family such as Hasbro games for enjoyable ways to pass time when traveling." A recent survey conducted by Hasbro found that American families plan to play games during time off this summer. Of those respondents planning a vacation, four in ten (41 percent) would rather have access to a closet full of board games than a big screen TV - talk about unplugged entertainment! If you don't have a game closet at your vacation destination, plan ahead and bring family games such as THE GAME OF LIFE, or CRANIUM.

  • Ludopor – Platform for Creating Word Educational Games
    LudoPor Word Games Creation Platform Samuel José Raposo Vieira Mira March of 2009 Acknowledgements While I have done a lot of work on this project, it would not have been possible without the help of many great people. I would like to thank my mother and my wonderful girlfriend who have encouraged me in everything I have ever done. I also owe a great amount to my thesis supervisor, Rui Prada whose advice and criticism has been critical in this project. Next I would like to thank the Ciberdúvidas community, especially Ana Martins, for having the time and will to try and experiment my prototypes. A special thanks is owed to my good friend António Leonardo and all the users that helped in this project especially the ones in the weekly meetings. 2 Abstract This thesis presents an approach for creating Word Games. We researched word games as Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble and more to establish reasons for their success. After this research we proposed a conceptual model using key concepts present in many of those games. The model defines the Game World with concepts such as the World Representation, Player, Challenges, Links, Goals and Performance Indicators. Then we created LudoPor - a prototype of a platform using some of the referred concepts. The prototype was made using an iterative design starting from paper prototypes to high fidelity prototypes using user evaluation tests to help define the right path. In this task we had the help of many users including persons of Ciberdúvidas (a Portuguese language community). Another objective of LudoPor was to create games for Ciberdúvidas that would be shown in their website.

  • Raising Readers: Tips for Parents
    Raising Readers: NIU Literacy Clinic Tips for Parents What is Reading Vocabulary? Adapted from: Elish-Piper L. (2010). Information and Ideas for parents about fluency and vocabulary. Illinois Reading Council Journal, 38(2), 50-51 Reading vocabulary refers to the words that a student can read and understand. When students know more words, they are more able to understand what they read. There is a strong connection between understanding the meaning of words and understanding a story, textbook, or other reading materials. Children learn new words in two main ways – indirectly and through instruction. Children learn words indirectly through reading, listening to others read to them, and having conversations with others. Most words that children learn are learned through indirect methods! This means that it is very important to have your child read, listen to others read to him or her, and participate in conversations since these indirect methods will help to build your child’s vocabulary. Children also learn words through instruction at school and in other educational settings. Through a combination of indirect vocabulary encounters and vocabulary instruction, children can learn the words they need to succeed as readers. What Can Parents Do to Promote Vocabulary Development at Home? Here are a collection of ideas to build children’s reading vocabulary at home using indirect and instructional strategies and activities. 1. Talk with your child and try to use new and interesting words. Exposing your child to new words is a great way to build your child’s interest in learning words. 2. Read to your child as often as possible.

Commonly referred to as a combination of volleyball and four-square. It is played 2 v 2, with a Spikeball net placed between the teams. A player starts by serving the ball down on the net so it bounces up at the opponents. They have up to three hits between them (like volleyball) to control the ball and bounce it back off the net. When they miss, you score. Once a point starts, players can move or hit the ball anywhere. Giant Snakes and Ladders. Like the classic board game, except your bodies are the tokens! Each player takes a turn rolling the dice. They then move forward the number of spaces shown on the dice. If you end up at the bottom of the ladder, you climb up and if you end up on a snake, you move down. The first player to the “HOME” space wins! Dual Walkers. This is your opportunity to team up to win. Using the dual walkers, each team must walk from point A to point B by using hand ropes to lift boards and move forward. Similar to a three- legged race, the first team to make it to the finish line wins! To make the game more fun, have the teams navigate through obstacles.

  • Helping Your Child with Reading Helping
    Celebrating literacy&numeracy Helping your child with literacy Ideas to use at home Helping your child with literacy - Ideas to use at home Helping your child with reading Be confident that your child will learn to read. Show that you enjoy reading by having lots of different reading material at home and by giving books as special presents. Children value reading through watching members of their family read and write every day. Encourage your child to read anytime, anywhere. Children often enjoy reading more if it is shared. Make time away from television and interruptions to read aloud with your child. Read in your home language if your first language is not English. Encourage your child to read by sharing such activities as: • reading signs and posters • following a street directory • checking the television guide • choosing a video • using a recipe • reading game rules • reading the newspaper aloud together • playing word games including crossword puzzles • reading instructions • looking at letterbox leaflets • finding brands at the shops • reading magazines, comics, poems and rhymes. Listen to your child read every day. Here are some ideas to use now and then, but remember some reading should just be for pleasure: • look at the cover, title, pictures and talk about what the book might be about • talk about the story so far and what might happen next • after reading, talk about the story and ask questions • talk about the pictures and how they add meaning to the text • take turns when reading a harder book. Remember the three Ps for new words: pause, prompt, praise.
