Further benefits

• Independent word learning: Each question on the Word Whizzer! spinner has a specific coloured border and symbol associated with it. The colours and pictures help the child to remember the questions when learning new words, even if they do not have the Word Whizzer! in front of them. This allows the child to internalize the Word Whizzer! strategies which promotes independent word learning
  

• A child develops confidence in answering and asking questions about a word or object using the questions on the Word Whizzer!

• Children learn how to describe objects and words which can improve their descriptive writing and speaking

• Word finding strategies: The questions on the Word Whizzer! can act as clues which help a child to recall a word that they are having trouble naming
