Description: A perfect interactive game for large groups and back-to-school sessions! Choose your backpack, then practice reading nonfiction paragraphs and finding the main idea to see how many school supplies you can grab from the board! This is a super fun item collecting game with main idea prompts and a school theme that supports up to seven players! On the game menu, players choose the color of their backpacks and place them on the floor. Each of the 24 questions on the menu map to a page with prompts designs for students with goals in receptive comprehension, retelling information, language comprehension, detail recall, summarizing, and identifying main ideas. After that is complete, the player clicks on the star and is awarded between 0 and 4 items. On the menu, the player will drag items into their backpack and watch them disappear inside. There are over 50 items on the board and the open ended nature of the game makes it have great replay value.
