My Project
Students come to the library for a variety of reasons. Not only do they require resources that open the mind and educate, but they also require opportunities to utilize the skills they learn in a variety of ways. Games provide student with alternate routes of putting their learning to task.
The games I currently have for students to use are old, broken, or missing parts.
I would like to restock our library shelves with this new collection of games, and with this clever design in their packaging, the games bring a whole other level of delight with them.
Games also allow students to get away from their devices to interact with one another. It is really gratifying to watch students play games during lunch or before or after school instead of seeing them on their phones.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
