DOC'S DESERT SPEEDWAY
How to Play
Lightning McQueen had a tough time making the turns
on this dusty desert track! Now players can put their
driving skills to the test by dodging obstacles, navigating
sharp turns and answering questions for extra speed.
Players use the D-pad to speed up and slow down, and
the A button to jump over pesky tumbleweeds. Watch
out—surprise patches of loose gravel and prickly cacti
can make cars spin out of control! When a question
pops up, players can use a nitro boost by pressing the B button to bump into
the car with the correct answer. Oh, yeah—don't forget to pick up those
tokens! Tokens can be used to get new tires/tyres or body parts to fend off
desert obstacles.
Level 1:
Players identify upper and lowercase letters, and identify simple
sight words.
Level 2:
Players get practice identifying and spelling simple plural forms.
Level 3:
Players identify and spell more challenging plural forms, such as changing
y to i, and irregular plural forms, such as mice, moose and feet.

Why Is This Important?
Once children can quickly recognize letters, they are ready to move on and
learn about letter-sound correspondence. Young children also need to build a
core of high-frequency words, or words that appear frequently in many different
sentences and texts. Games such as Doc's Desert Speedway help children
develop automatic recognition of these words.

Players encounter vocabulary that appears frequently
Players identify and spell the plural forms of common words.
