Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Board games are invaluable for special education students as they promote cognitive development, social interaction, and critical thinking.
These games provide a structured and engaging environment for learning essential skills like turn-taking, communication, and teamwork.
The tactile nature of board games enhances sensory experiences, benefiting students with diverse learning needs. Additionally, board games often incorporate visual aids, aiding those with learning disabilities. Through the enjoyment of play, special education students can improve attention spans, fine motor skills, and strategic thinking, fostering a positive and inclusive learning atmosphere that caters to individual abilities and encourages holistic development.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
