They all are each hurriedly printing something on a piece of paper; suddenly the youngest child shouts "I got another one!"Her older brother grabs the dictionary and is looking up a word from his paper, "It is a word. I knew it. I rock!" The last child says, "Does anyone have the 6 letter word yet? I think I know what it is! It's my turn to pick the recipe today, right grandma?" What is the secret that these kids don't know? They are playing word scramble games especially designed to teach them new words and to improve their spelling...the kids think that they are just having fun! The teacher designed games are "kid friendly "classic word scrambles games. They are designed in the "Hangman" game style of a hint letter and blank lines for the missing letters. All children are familiar with this style. The words selected are words for kids 8-11 years with some enrichment words to challenge.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Income disparity for students in both K-12 and higher education settings has become increasingly apparent since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the wake of these changes, impoverished students face a variety of challenges both internal and external. Educators must deepen their awareness of the obstacles students face beyond the classroom to support learning. Traditional literacy education must evolve to become culturally, linguistically, and socially relevant to bridge the gap between poverty and academic literacy opportunities. Poverty Impacts on Literacy Education develops a conceptual framework and pedagogical support for literacy education practices related to students in poverty. The research provides protocols supporting student success through explored connections between income disparity and literacy instruction. Covering topics such as food insecurity, integrated instruction, and the poverty narrative, this is an essential resource for administration in both K-12 and higher education settings, professors and teachers in literacy, curriculum directors, researchers, instructional facilitators, pre-service teachers, school counselors, teacher preparation programs, and students.
