Help me give my students fun and engaging games to support cognitive mental development.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Athenas's classroom raised $206
This project is fully funded
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
My students are a hardworking, diverse, and enthusiastic group of 8th graders! Our school is a Title 1 school, with over 85% of students coming from low-income families. Something we strive for in our classroom is social-emotional support and cognitive development.
Board games and puzzles help students build problem-solving, logic, and reasoning skills in a fun and engaging manner!
Our mixed population of special needs, English language learners, and general education students love playing board games when they finish assignments early. This is a great way to help them relax and reset before their next class.
Nearly all 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
