2011-01-20
WILMINGTON, DE, January 20, 2011 (Press-News.org) Donald McNeill will be on hand at BlogTalkRadio's educational program EduTalk at 10 a.m. to give advice to would-be education and entertainment entrepreneurs. Listen live at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/edutalk or visit the show's archives on the web radio-blog at http://www.educationtalkradio.wordpress.com.

"BlogTalkRadio is the largest and fastest-growing social radio network on the Internet and has millions of listeners tuning in and joining the conversation each month," says McNeill. "I am thrilled to be invited to share my experience with the listeners of EduTalk."

McNeill is the inventor of the educational language game You've been Sentenced! This game turns sentence construction into a hilarious competition. You've been Sentenced! uses pentagon-shaped cards containing conjugations of common words, familiar places, and famous names in history, which players use to build sentences -- challenging their ingenuity and grammar skills.

You've been Sentenced! has elicited rave reviews from groups as diverse as the Mensa Society (Toy Roundup), to The Old Schoolhouse Magazine for homeschooling parents, to Metro Kids Magazine. But according to McNeill, "The most amazing response we've received is from teachers and educators from around the country who have been utilizing the game in classrooms. It provides the opportunity to instruct in grammar, word usage, and sentence construction, in a really fun way - the kids don't even realize how much they're learning."
