Games Make Learning Fun!

Help me give my students an opportunity to color and create take home games to practice their academic skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Briggs's classroom raised $284

This project is fully funded

My Project

Copy paper will be used in the daily preparation of morning work, homework, and parent newsletters which are distributed quarterly. My students love to play games and work on independent activities to practice their skills. My students will use the cardstock to make board games and sight word cards. they will be able to create their own word problems for math and have other students solve them. Students can color, create and make their games using these supplies (paper, crayons, and velcro) to produce their activities.

Best of all, at the end of each unit, they will also be able to take these activities home to continue to practice skills on teacher workdays and breaks.
