Building Visual Memory Skills with The Star Witness Game

The Star Witness Memory Game

Imagine that you are the star witness in the case of the cookie bandit. Someone wearing a not-so-clever disguise just tiptoed away with a giant bag of cookies. Hey, not so fast, cookie bandit! Lucky for cookie lovers like us, you saw who did it.

Do you remember what the cookie bandit looks like? Collect the cards that describe all 4 features of that sneaky bandit and win the game!

Designed to boost visual memory, the Star Witness Game is also a great way to build working memory. Students must hold the visual image of their bandit in mind all while making decisions and taking action. Careful! Drawing and discarding cards that don’t fit the description can be VERY distracting, even for the grown-ups.

Versatility

• Simplify the challenge for younger students. (See “Alternative Ways to Play.”)
• Build auditory memory with a variation of the game.
• Use the game cards to strengthen language skills by asking students to verbalize the bandit’s features.
• Great tool for educational therapists working with older students.

2-4 players
