ABCYa
ABCYa is a free educational game for
students that is organized by grade level and subject area. Students are able
to play games and use their motor skills without being aware that they are
reviewing their skills that they have learned into a game. All games are spread
out evenly throughout the grade levels. The games that are in each grade level
are appropriately grouped according to subject.
As I was browsing through some of
the games, they are very engaging activities for all learners. Not only are
these students reviewing skills on Reading and Math, but they are also learning
how to be a good digital citizen and learning the basic functions on how to operate
a computer or laptop. Also, another great thing that is useful for teachers is
that the games are aligned with a wide variety of Common Core State Standards.
The website is very catchy and very colorful for
school aged children. To access the games, you do not need to have a log in
information. It is easy to navigate
through all the different grade levels. There is a section on videos and these
videos are “How To…” for students to do either at home or at school.
As teachers we are constantly
collecting data on our students, with this website it does not collect
information. A recommendation is to use this website as a reinforcement or an
incentive for students when finished with their work.
