Where there is a problem experienced by group B teachers, namely group B students are able to mention numbers 1 - 10 and are able to mention the letters of the alphabet, but if asked to pour what has been mentioned both numbers and alphabets there are still students who are wrong with the pattern and shape, so researchers are trying to make Educational Game Tools from materials that are easily found, namely rice.
