PROJECT OBJECTIVES General To develop an educational games for the pupils of Little star Pre School. Specific 1. To develop games that care for the feelings of the pupil who are unable to play games because of the handicaps. 2. To develop games that will rate the performance of the pupils. 3. To develop games that will be enjoyable for the kids and will be full of fun. PROJECT SCOPE This project is only applicable on preparatory schools. It covers the subject English, math, science, Filipino, MAPEH and Sibika at Kultura. There are three levels for each of these games where the first level is the easy level, the second is the average level and the third is the difficult level. The game has the ability to capture the pupils score as when the pupil played the games and store it on the database. In addition, these recorded scores can be posted on a web based score board. The game can also rate the pupil’s performance, thus helping the pupils to determine their errors while playing the game. The system has the ability to add and update student records. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT The project is introduced to have educational, fun loving games to the Little star pre school. Through this project, boring types of games will be replaced by games full of fun. If a game is educational it is important to have games that are not boring to the kids because it might not catch their interest thus they will not absorb the lesson the game that is teaches. This is the reason why the researchers propose this kind of system. A game is also a past time and an extra activity in school. Vacant time can be a perfect time to play some games. Instead of playing games that lack educational ideas kids can play the educational games, they can have fun and the most important fact is that they learn something through these games. Students that have a health problem in heart and lings are not capable to play physical games because they are easy to get tired or they might have an asthma attacks. Kids that have this kind of problems are envious to the physically fact kids, because they can play physical game, in order to supply some of each excitement when playing this game. The proposed system does not need physical cooperation but it can supply some of the exciter of the physically related games.
