Learning Through Games

Children remember what they play

Games turn practice into fun. Children count, read, plan & work in teams without even noticing how much they are learning.

How a game lesson runs

Play with a plan

Learn the rule

The teacher shows the game & the skill it practises.

Play in teams

Small groups play, take turns & help each other.

Talk it through

Children share what worked & what was tricky.

Show it

Each child draws or writes one thing they learned.

Why it works

Play builds the skills children need

When children play with a goal, they practise the same skill many times, & they want to keep going.

  • Focus & patience from waiting for a turn.
  • Teamwork from winning & losing together.
  • Confidence from solving a problem on their own.
