Lagos State To Add Scrabble To Schools’ Curriculum by NigeriaNewsDeck: 6:10pm On Jun 23, 2017
Technical Director of the Lagos State Scrabble Association Adetona Odukomaiya, on Friday said plans were underway to add scrabble to schools’ curriculum in the state.

Odukomaiya told the News Agency of Nigeria that the association had been working closely with the State Ministry of Education to ensure its implementation.

“We have introduced scrabble as a game in all schools in Lagos state. We are now adding scrabble to the schools’ curriculum in the state.

“We have coaches who go into the schools to train the students every day. Scrabble is all about English Language and introducing it will increase the vocabulary of the students.

“It will also make them much more aware of English words and help them in their final result in English language in WAEC examinations and others.

“It is also going to open up the students to the advantage of playing scrabble, such as getting scholarships,’’ he said.

Magnificent. I just hope it is enforced, especially in private schools.

I think Moral Instructions, History and Chess are good subjects that should be added to help our younger ones here.

Smart ass. Do you know what scrabble is?
Try not to be dumb, CRK was not even removed contrary to what you were told.
History should be re inculcated yes. But try to constructively criticize next time.
Besides, scrabble is not even a subject to be studied; it is like an extra curricula activity.
