I have played versions of Three for Me for years so I created a game for St. Patrick’s Day fun. It targets expanding vocabulary, descriptive language, categories, and higher-level thinking
Players scan the game board to find three objects with something in common. Whenever a player finds three items they shout out, “Three For Me!”. They mark the items and tell why they go-together. A player can break another’s set to create their own threesome. It’s a fast-paced frenzy collecting the most rainbow markers to win.
Parents and I model new and complex vocabulary and descriptions we want the child to use on their turn. By overhearing they will soon use these words on their turns. It is yet another way to expand a child’s listening, auditory association and comprehension skills
