Working Memory Games Club Level A is an engaging and social course for students who would benefit from improving underlying skills needed for academics. Join me for intensive learning through games! Together, we'll spend time improving skills such as: - working memory - processing speed - attention - memory (both visual and auditory) - long term memory We use games, exercises, practice, and fun to increase skills and solidify progress. We will play games on the screen, in nearpod, and on individual (real life) white boards with a dry erase marker. One example game is "memory" where I will show the student a pattern or picture on my screen, and then count to 5. Once the picture is hidden, I'll ask a distracting question like, "are you wearing blue?". Then we'll see if they can remember the pattern! Then the student will draw what they remember on their own whiteboards and then show the class. We'll practice this and work on increasing difficulty as the student is able. This course is structured a bit differently than my 1:1 classes. our focus will be on social time through fun brain games that can be played as a group. Week 1: Ocean themed games! - Open with a processing speed game! - play a working memory game! - a number or letter brain game - visual memory and auditory memory drawing games - close with a fun group game Week 2: Jungle themed games - Open with a processing speed game! - play a working memory game! - a number or letter brain game - visual memory and auditory memory drawing games - close with a fun group game Week 3: Castle themed games - Open with a processing speed game! - play a working memory game! - a number or letter brain game - visual memory and auditory memory drawing games - close with a fun group game Week 4: Space themed games - Open with a processing speed game! - play a working memory game! - a number or letter brain game - visual memory and auditory memory drawing games - close with a fun group game Each week will be a new theme with similar games to build skills and have fun!
