"This is the best game I’ve seen for children of that age group!"
Devon P. - Age 9, Brampton, Ontario
"You can’t play this game just once and not again. You want to play it a lot!"
David B. - Teacher, Principal, Oakville, Ontario
"This is a fun way to learn parts of speech and encourage creative writing." NounSense encourages and motivates reading, encourages imagination and creativity - builds vocabulary. Great activity for classroom activity centres!"
Evelyn P. - Grade 2 Teacher, McBride Public School, Mississauga, Ontario
"I would purchase this game for use with the students!"
Gail P. - Grade 5 Teacher, St. Margaret’s of Scotland Elementary School, Mississauga, Ontario
"NounSense is a great way to lighten up the learning. It’s a fun way to apply the concepts of nouns and adjectives." (The students) enjoyed choosing noun stickers and hearing the outcome of each story. They really laughed at the sentences!"
Dayna S. - Age 8, Oakville, Ontario
"I love this game! It’s funny!"
Karen D. - School Board Coordinator (retired), Minneapolis, MN
"As a volunteer coordinator, I designed many tutoring and mentoring programs involving literacy. I would recommend this game when working with kids in the areas of Literacy and English as a Second Language."
Elizabeth S. – Davis Dyslexia Facilitator, Oakville, Ontario
"I work with Dyslexics and have found NounSense to be stimulating and engaging for my clients. The humour engages their natural talent and motivates them to continue working on their reading skills."
Darla R. - Grade 2 Teacher, McBride Public School, Mississauga, Ontario
"NounSense could be used as introductory and motivating ‘Step 1’ and then over time, the student would graduate to similar games designed with missing verbs and adjectives."
Mary L-C – Recreation Director for Seniors, Oakville, Ontario
"What a great tool for helping Seniors with dementia become engaged in a meaningful activity! NounSense was a success – the clients became engaged in reading, laughing and social interaction."
David H. - Age 8, Grade 3, Brampton, Ontario
"This game is fun!"
