Resources – Reading

I searched through various sites for suitable activities for learning. I do not own any of the games and hope the makers don’t mind adding them to our list of learning activities. At times there are versions that you can buy which either give more levels or are more elaborate, I suggest you look into some of them as often they have more challenging. Some of the games have multi levels, that is why they are in multi years.
