My students need games to help them learn a variety of skills, such as critical thinking and social communication skills.

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 Students
My students love playing games! They are energetic, curious, and kind people. They really flourish in a classroom that is full of hands-on and engaging activities that allow them to problem solve and create. My students come to class eager to learn and are supportive in helping others learn. We like to incorporate games into our day as a way for the students to build teamwork and communication skills.
Our elementary school is located in Houston's diverse community of the East End.
My Project
Through games, students can learn a variety of skills such as critical thinking, communicating, teamwork, listening, and good sportsmanship.
The "Lunch Bunch" is a group of students that come to our classroom during their lunch period to not only eat, but to interact and play games too.
Students that demonstrate positive attitudes, perseverance, a good work ethic, and kindness towards others are invited to attend the Lunch Bunch for that week. Lunch Bunch attendance is high. The students do not want to miss the opportunity to play card or board games with their peers in our classroom, so we need a variety of games!
I chose the Operation and Battleship games because some of the students have difficulty with fine motor skills, such as writing and using scissors. These two games encourage the students to practice the pincer grasp to pick up small objects.
I want to continue to encourage the students that their positive actions will be rewarded with a unique lunch time learning experience. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve a variety of skills, you will also help motivate positive interactions between the students and their peers.
