Critical Thinking Skills at Work

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jeffries's classroom raised $290

My Project

This project will help my students gain access to a variety of engaging and challenging educational lessons across different grade and ability levels using Breakout EDU. Students will participate in engaging, hands-on, challenging puzzles in multiple standard-based content areas.

No only will my students be challenged academically, but they will also be strengthening their social and emotional skills through collaboration with like-minded peers.

These puzzles will require students to use critical thinking skills and work creatively with their peers to solve various clues. They will practice communicating their individual thoughts and ideas effectively in a group dynamic.
