MEMORY CHALLENGE ALPHABERT AND SPROCKET THE READY TO READ ROBOTS™ ACTIVITIES ACTIVITY 15 - MEMORY CHALLENGE This activity strengthens sequencing skills. Your child will have an opportunity to test his or her memory as he or she is asked to determine which object the friendly robot has said. Objects will be added one at a time to increase the difficulty of the game. Your child will have to press the object buttons in the order that Alphabert said them. Learning Benefits for Your Child - The Memory Challenge activity allows your child to sharpen his or her listening skills while trying to identify objects in proper sequence. Your child will develop problem-solving strategies as he or she creates a way of remembering the order in which the objects were presented. ACTIVITY INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Press the Memory Challenge activity button and you will hear a sound effect followed by "Follow me." 2. The learning toy will ask you to press an object, for example, "Press Up." 3. Press the correct object button and the learning toy will add another object for you to follow. For example, you will hear "Press Up and Eagle." You must press "Up" followed by "Eagle." It will continue to add a new word for each correctly inputted sequence until the entire 6-word sequence has been said. 4. If an incorrect sequence of buttons is pressed, Alphabert's eyes will turn to look at Sprocket. Sprocket will say, "Are your gears stuck? Let us help!" The LCD screen will show you the correct sequence. 5. Press the Help button once and the entire question will be repeated. If you are still having difficulty repeating the sequence, press the Help button again and the learning toy will identify it. 18
