ABSTRACT:
A diagnostic educational memory skill game and method for developing, improving, and diagnosing memory skills comprising a game board assembly and cards. The game board assembly includes a game board which has a plurality of player areas with a common area disposed therebetween and extensions of said game board. Each player area comprises a pair of rows of spaces, one row represents the recycling area while the other represents the mastered area. The cards have information printed thereon and comprise question cards, center cards, and bonus cards. When a question card is drawn, a player must answer a question relating to that question card. If his response is correct, the question card is placed in his mastered area; if incorrect, the question card is placed in his recycling area. When a center card is placed in the common area, each question asked relates to the information on both the displayed center card and the question cards drawn. If a bonus card is drawn, the player must make fresh responses for each question card in his player area, and the question cards are repositioned according to the acceptability of the responses. The object of the game is to respond acceptably to each question so that all of a player's question cards are placed in his mastered area before the teacher's question cards are placed likewise. During the game, the student players are motivated through competition with the teacher, and the teacher diagnoses student memory skill deficiencies and prescribes correction procedures.
