Word Raider: Vocabulary Builder for Grades 2-5

Ballard & Tighe has announced its new educational Game, Word Raider: Escape. The game is designed to engage students in Grades 2-5 in rigorous vocabulary instruction. Students are introduced to words through animations that convey the meaning of the words and then practice using the words to solve puzzles. Throughout the word games, students listen, speak, read, and write in order to gain long-term memory of the words covered. Word Raider: Escape ($24 per student per year) helps students meet Common Core State Standards and is said to be excellent for students with learning difficulties, ESL, and ELL students. If you are interested in trying Word Raider: Escape, you can sign up for a trial game to pilot it with up to 20 students.
