What Makes Frog Family Fun-Packs Great
Learning is easy and fun with the Frog Family Fun-Pack program. For 24 weeks, families follow an enjoyable and effective routine, playing a Family Fun-Pack Game each evening and using a new game each week. To make it easy for parents to use consistently, Fun-Pack games take just a few minutes to play. The gamecards communicate the curriculum to the parents by showing exactly what kinds of questions, vocabulary and skills their child is expected to have mastered. All of the games are self-checking and all of the games use the same, simple directions. Every playing of a Family Fun-Pack game gives the student a review of all 25 of the most important skills aligned to tests for that level. This consistent practice provides a very solid foundation upon which further classroom instruction is built. And using the Family Fun-Packs establishes the habit of daily study with parental involvement and participation. The repetition develops competence, speed, and confidence necessary for positive learning attitudes and high achievement in class and on tests. It's like taking a practice test! Family Fun-Packs provide positive family interactions, effective home-school communication and a systematic way for parents to help students do well in school.
