My Project

My students will use the wooden puzzles, Guess Who, Skip-Bo, Left Right Center, memory, Spot It, Operation, Jenga, Battleship, and checkers to learn how to work together with other students. The childcraft large wooden puzzle storage rack will help us keep things organized.

Students will learn how to play cooperatively and how to win and lose in and game and be able to be okay with the results.

My students love playing games, but I am finding many of them are not socially prepared to problem solve or work through things when it is not going their way. It is my goal for students to gain some of these skills through play.
