About

Spel

Spel-Ett on Ekapelin ruotsinkielinen versio, jossa harjoitellaan lukemisen alkeita. Peli on suunniteltu esikouluikäisille tai vanhemmille oppilaille, jotka tarvitsevat harjoitusta kirjain-äänne -yhteyksien tunnistamisessa. Spel-Ett voidaan ottaa käyttöön esimerkiksi kotona, koulussa, esikoulussa tai puheterapeutilla. Pelin avulla harjoittelemisesta voi olla erityisesti apua, jos lapsen suvussa on esiintynyt lukivaikeuksia tai lapsen kielen kehityksessä on ollut havaittavissa vaikeuksia. Peliä pelaamalla lapsi saa tehokasta lisäharjoitusta, jonka avulla lukutaidon kehittyminen muiden oppilaiden tahdissa voi helpottua.
