The Easter Listen, Riddle & Rhyme game builds on the excitement of Easter as many families gather together to decorate and hunt for eggs, eat jelly beans, talk about the Easter Bunny and attend church. Players hop around the gameboard, solve riddles with rhyming clues and learn Easter and springtime vocabulary.
This game targets vocabulary, rhyming, listening for details, inference, auditory closure, memory and comprehension, and critical thinking. The resource includes Listening and Spoken Language (LSL) tips for playing with children that are deaf and hard of hearing who are learning to listen and talk.
Background knowledge of recurring holidays and seasons is fundamental for language, academic and communication success. Children that are deaf and hard of hearing as well as those students with limited language may struggle to increase vocabulary because of weak auditory memory, difficulty with auditory comprehension and lack of exposure. The more a child knows about a topic, such as Easter the easier it is to comprehend and retain the information. Families are encouraged to take part in Easter activities, traditions and read stories to foster background knowledge and vocabulary.
The riddles and rhymes lend themselves to be shared and taught by distance learning and teletherapy and created for families to play at home.
