About the application:

The English Minnits is an journey mini game that is intended for kids learning English as an extra language between the ages of 10-13. It was originally developed for kids with unique needs and was funded by The National Agency for Unique Needs Education and Schools (SPSM in Swedish). However, as the mini game follows the national school syllabus, a lot of schools have selected to use this mini game as a complement to traditional teaching materials. The mini game contains more than 6000 useable phrases that the student uses to solve the major trouble affecting the Kingdom of Minutia. The mini game is entertaining and educational. It has been especially developed to stimulate the student’s word acquisition, memory and knowledge of the English language. With the assist of beautiful graphics, clear spoken instructions and challenging quests, the mini game is estimated to provide 25 hours of playing time. THE STORY Minnits and dragons lived peaceably together. They were not mates, but neither were they opponents. Then the railway came – some Minnits liked it but others were not so sure. The dragons were absolutely sure – they hated it! The railway had destroyed the environment in which they used to roam freely with the effect that they are now, jittery, mad and extremely … dangerous! In order to resolve the trouble the Minnits need a character, someone who can rescue them from the current chaos and the dragons. That character is called Wheeze. HOW IT WORKS The English Minnits is a question based journey mini game. The user assumes the role of Wheeze - the brave dragon hunter. The user learns English by listening to and following instructions and by taking part in hundreds of dialogues and carrying out quests that he is requested to do. The student learns to use English in normal everyday situations. The English Minnits has been developed for non-native speakers who need to learn English. ADVANTAGES There are no ads, no blood and no awful language. Studies have shown that kids learn English by playing the Minnits ‘without realizing it’. As the focus is on dealing with everyday situations and the listen-and-learn approach, The Minnits is the excellent complement to another language learning material. As the mini game follows the national syllabus it is used by a lot of schools. Studies present that not only are the students thoroughly engaged, but the teacher is also provided with an exciting and motivating lesson. PLAY IT AT HOME If you wish to play it at home – and a lot of already do – there is a personal ver. The advantages of playing it at home are a lot of. For those students who have come a tiny further in their learning, The Minnits provides an additional stimulus to develop their knowledge. For those that need a tiny more help, the mini game provides a more exciting environment in which to practise their knowledge. Other advantage is that the The Minnits only uses modern day English. The dialogues have been developed based on the English language that is used today. The idea behind this is to teach kids a language that will assist them to cope in daily ‘English‘ situations.
