Quarry Bam

“Quarry Bam” is a game for teaching a students to communicate by coordinating physical movements according to language, gesture and posture questions. It aims at increasing a student’s attention to Yes/No questions regarding emotions/feelings, spatial orientation of shapes as well as math operations and properties (distributive and associative).

The student needs to make hand symmetrical movements to move the lever and locate it at the correct box that will sparkle an explosion indicating the correct response. This promotes bilateral coordination.

The teacher/therapist can choose the set of questions that a student will need to answer regarding emotions, spatial orientation of shapes and math operations/properties. The teacher/therapist can strengthening their student’s understanding of emotions, spatial orientation and math operations/properties.

Are you ready to make explosions?
