Organized Games Such: At no age is play exclusively individualistic or entirely social. Under favorable conditions, ten-year-old boys become interested in teamwork, show loyalty to their team, and play a larger number of organized games such as baseball. This growing interest in the team partly accounts for the increasing popularity, between the ages of nine and sixteen, of ball games which require skill in throwing and catching and participation in more complicated group organization.
In the way of practical help, suggest games that could be played at home (e.g. word bingo or a cloze game where children fill in missing words or phrases), explaining the particular value of games to a child with reading problems -namely that they're fun and so don't seem too much like hard work, and also that they have a useful repetitive, reinforcing function. When you recommend a game, try to explain just how it is designed to help. There are booklets and pamphlets available, which give ideas for games that can easily be made and played at home (e.g. Hip Pocket Spelling Games series, New York, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1983).
The Commonwealth Games are open to member nations of the British Commmonwealth. Originally called the Empire Games until 1970, they were first held in Canada in 1930. They are nicknamed 'the Friendly Games'.Whilst representing Canada Lennox Lewis,
subsequently WBC world heavyweight champion, won the super-heavyweight boxing gold medal in 1986 at Edinburgh.
