My Project
Research has shown that games are essential for healthy development in early childhood and beyond. Play lets children practice what they know, and also what they don't. It allows them to experiment through trial and error, find solutions to problems, work out the best strategies, and build new confidence and skills.
Playing games in the classroom is an important part of the learning process.
We know that kids learn through play, and the research is piling up that proves the value of classroom games in the classroom.
From connecting kids to the material they’ve learned to provide rewards and motivation, we know there are benefits to classroom games.
This project includes many board games and card games that my students will love! I have found that many children do not know how to play the games that most of us grew up playing. I'm also asking for organizing tubs to help organize the games in this project and other games that I've created over the years.
