SPELL - A series of card games that teaches children and adults how to improve their spelling while having fun at the same time!
Illiteracy among children is one of the major problems the world faces today. 22% of Americans can’t read or write. While it is an unseen problem, illiteracy has a profound impact on society. Statistics reveal that 60% of prison inmates are illiterate. 85% of all juvenile offenders have reading problems. More than half of the people in America age to 65 have a reading level below the eighth grade. Illiteracy leads to low self-esteem, unemployment, poverty and crime. The amount of time spent in poverty has a significant and negative effect on a child’s academic achievement. The U.S. Education Department released statistics stating that more than 32 million, or about 14 percent of Americans, are illiterate.
