Adventure, Creativity, Imagination, Exploration, and SEL with D&D

Help me give my students the opportunity to explore creativity and imagination through Dungeons and Dragons.

My Project

Innovating within the public school system is difficult. Trying out new ideas and ways of supporting student needs is one of the ways educational innovation takes place. But trying new things without the funding can be challenging. I'd like to bring the opportunity to utilize the role playing game, Dungeons and Dragons as an elective to support student growth in academics and social emotional learning.

Dungeons and Dragons has the ability to build community, develop empathy, increase communication skills, develop tolerance, develop imagination, practice creativity, engage in team and individual problem solving, experience character growth, take part in storytelling, and develop language and literacy skills.
