CONCENTRATION (MEMORY) GAME

This game is best played in groups of two, with the childen "talking" through the puzzle. Example: "Where was the other plantain image?" "I think it's beside the apple!" Competitors should first learn to identify the images from the table of images, and then attempt the game. To play the game, set the timer to zero by clicking the clock, click a tile, then another. If a matching pair is found, both will remain face upwards. Continue until all tiles are turned face upwards. The exercise is timed, and each player can compete for a personal best, or against others in the class.
