Easy Reading Instruction
Roxie, a friendly, animated, talking cat, plays Go Fish with a child, but, instead of asking for a number, Roxie asks, Please give me your cards with and says a word from a list of over two hundred basic, high-frequency words, which were chosen with the aid of reading specialists in early elementary education. The child either clicks on his or her card containing that word, or on the draw deck. Roxie gently guides the child in selecting the correct word card.
Reward game is educational too!
When a Go Fish game is completed, Roxie then sets up a memory game. This problem solving game provides a fun reward game. To play, the child needs to find pairs of words and patterned tiles. When a match is made, Roxie will say that word. The words used are all words from the next reading level. In this way, the child painlessly begins to learn the next set of words he or she will encounter in the next levels of the game. When they reach the next level, they already have some familiarity with those words, and learn them much more quickly!
Customizable Word Lists
Roxies series of Go Fish games now incorporates a feature where the parent or teacher can record their own words, and enter their word lists into the program with an easy-to-use database. Word lists are easy to enter, select, modify and delete when no longer needed. With these features, the child can now learn words with which they are having difficulty, or words that they would like to learn to read, or words in a book they will be reading, extending the programs life considerably.
