Board Game Club!

Help me give my students a variety of different games for them to enjoy, but for them to also learn from them.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Swims's classroom raised $177

My Project

My students will be introduced to different types of games, where they will enjoy them but not only that, but they will also learn from it. The games I have selected for my students will help them with math, reading, critical thinking, decision making, and will increase their social skills. I want to have this board game club, for the students to be able to have fun.

They will play games in a structured environment where they will learn how to win and lose.

They will also be able to be kind to their peers and be able to work with other peers.

My students are very unique and creative so this will be a fun club to attend.
