English – reinforce basic literacy skills
‘I have, who has?’ – English is a series of three blackline master books designed to reinforce basic literacy skills using auditory discrimination as the major focus. Using interactive game cards, students work in small groups or as a whole class to complete a chain of questions and answers, designed to take learning to the application level.
Each student maintains involvement in each game by using the supporting active listening enrichment blackline, designed to track the progress of the game.
Skills addressed by the games in these books:
Ages 5-7 – rhyming words, word families, high frequency words, grammar, vocabulary development, synonyms and antonyms, analogies, contractions, compound words, singular and plural, main idea, categorising, and cause and effect
Ages 8-10 – synonyms and antonyms, homophones, homographs, compound words, grammar, prefixes and suffixes, Greek and Latin roots, base words, alphabetical order, rhyming words, analogies, sentences, context clues, main idea, categorisation, fact or opinion, and vocabulary
