Games for Indoor Recess

Help me give my students classic board games to play during indoor recess.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Kargol's classroom raised $331

This project is fully funded

My Project

I am requesting a variety of card games for indoor recess. Playing card and board games will help students learn to take turns, wait their turn, have discussions, and play cooperatively with peers. The games I am requesting are Life, Guess Who, Knoodle, Dogman, Sorry, Monopoly, Scrabble, Five Crowns, Candy Land, Connect 4, and Don't Break the Ice. Playing games during indoor recess will help students build those important social skills that they don't get when playing games on a computer.

Help me give my students games to play, have fun, and build social skills during indoor recess!
