You’ll find an abundance of educational games that teach specific skills and provide remediation. Unfortunately, the value of these games varies widely; some are designed more as an end in themselves rather than as a teaching tool. These games may also require a wide bandwidth and can have several advertisements.

As such, I have reviewed several of the ones I felt most appropriate. If you have others to suggest, please email me by clicking on my name on the front page.
