Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

I'm requesting several classic board games like Checkers, Chess, Connect 4, Sorry, Trouble, Candyland, Scrabble, and Chutes and Ladders. Students will have these games as a choice whenever they finish a unit of study.

Playing board games fosters the development of social skills such as taking turns, playing fairly, and winning graciously.

Students will also develop language skills as they play these games.

Students will have to practice listening skills to learn the rules of each game. They will also have spontaneous conversations with each other throughout the game play.
