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
Playing board games and enhancing person to person interactions is the goal of this project. I recently got an advisory class added game for high schoolers to promote positive peer relationships (getting them engaged with one another directly) approved. Generation Z students need to put down technology (their cell phones) and interact with each other face to face. They're all so excited to be together, learn new games and teach each other these games.
Board games can turn learning into a fun as a social activity that promotes critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration.
An added bonus is being part of a class like this where you authentically learning a game you've always wanted to learn enhances student's social-emotional being. By working in a team, students learn conflict resolution, good sportsmanship, communication and building friendships.
Currently we have a scare supply of games. We wrote a Donorschoose project for the first set of games to get us started. But we still do not have much of a variety. For this reason we are requesting a second batch of board games.
Thank you for your time, consideration, and support of public school children. When you care about students, you support equity and making our future better.
