My Project

Gifted students need meaningful lessons that allow them to use critical thinking skills in new and meaningful ways. I love incorporating hands-on learning in my class and Break Out Rooms are just one way my resource students have a chance to showcase their skills.

With the BreakOut EDU platform and the physical game kits, I can add to my library to breakout rooms and ensure students have new and exciting material.

My students are pulled out of class daily to work on problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking. Using Breakout Rooms combines all three.
