Ms. Davis from Davenport IA is requesting educational kits & games through DonorsChoose, the most trusted classroom funding site for teachers.

Game Time Can Be Learning!!

Help me give my students an opportunity to build social skills and functional life skills. My students are moderate to severe disabilities and they need direct instruction on social skills and playing games with peers and in groups.

My Students

My classroom consists of approximately 10 students ages 12-14 who have been identified intensive special education services. Our school is in a low income area and we are identified as a Title One building. All of our students receive free breakfast and lunch and have access to additional community services through our building.

My Project

Mrs Davis' students will learn the value of playing games and interacting with other peers and adults. My students who struggle with communication and with the basic understanding of playing games while interacting appropriately. They need step by step instructions to play games and learn how to manage their sensory needs while interacting with others.

The skills taught while playing games and doing team building activities will help them in the future with appropriately interacting with peers and other people.

My students need to work on building communication to interact with others and express what they want in situations. Playing games and group activities can help teach this skill and make it fun!
