How To Use It
Match It: Shuffle the cards and place them face down. Players take turns flipping two cards. If they match, the player keeps them; otherwise, the cards are turned over, and the next player goes. The player with the most pairs at the end wins. This activity helps improve working memory, visual discrimination, concentration, and social skills.
Ask It: Spread the cards face up. One player selects a card and others ask "yes" or "no" questions to guess which community helper has been chosen. This activity enhances the process of elimination, question formulation, and social interaction.
Link It: Select two cards and describe how they are similar or different. For example, you might compare a firefighter and a police officer based on their duties, tools, and work environments. This fosters skills like comparing, contrasting, describing, and categorizing.
Use It: Use the cards to teach children about community helpers while reinforcing vocabulary development and "who" questions. The bright and kid-friendly illustrations enhance engagement and retention.
Remember It: Use the cards to improve working memory. Players add cards to a row and must remember all previously added cards. This activity supports concentration, word recall, and associations.
