ABCya.com (http://www.abcya.com) is an educational game
website that organizes grade level appropriate games according to subject
categories for grade Pre-K to 5th grade. In addition, on each icon
there is a letter or number (grade) to let you know the level for that game. The
subject categories include letters, numbers, holiday, strategy, and skills
games. Games include arcade-style games, word find games, racing games that can
be played against other players, typing games, matching games, and more. Most
games are easy for students to use without much adult or teacher assistance,
the games include voice directions which make it easier for younger students to
navigate. On ABCya.com most games are free for all users, users that would like
ad-free use of the website or access to content unavailable to non-subscribers
would have to subscribe to the ABCya.com website and follow the websites
payment terms. The website is a great tool for students to work on and practice
skills that they have learned in the classroom.
ABCya.com is a great way to
have students actively engage in fun games and activities online on skills that
they have learned in the classroom. I personally use ABCya.com with my
kindergarten students. This is a great way to introduce them to the keyboard
and mouse. I was very pleased that the literacy games were great resource for
my students to learn how to use the mouse as well as reviewing skills that we
were learning in the classroom.
Though most of them are not
able to read yet, the grade level appropriate games are very self-explanatory
and have voice instructions. Overall, ABCya.com is a great tool for teachers
and parents of students grades Pre-K- 5th grade who want to find fun
and engaging activities for their students to practice and review skills taught
in the classroom.
