My Project

This project will allow my students the opportunity to play board games with other students with their earned free time.

I am finding that many students do not play board games.

This project will provide our classroom with enrichment games to help further their communication skills by working together. I have chose games that are not only entertaining but are classics.

On Friday afternoons, students who are caught up with all their work have an opportunity to have free choice time. I have a few hands on games that they gravitate towards and would like to add to the collection.

I would love to also bring a hot chocolate cart to my class so they can have a special treat on birthdays.
