My Project

Throughout the school year, my students have to stay inside for recess. When this happens it takes place in the classroom and there is not a lot for them to do. As a result, they usually get onto their computers and play independently.

I would love to give my students the opportunity to learn some old-fashioned board games that would allow them to interact with their peers.

Board games teach so many skills including taking turns, problem-solving, teamwork, and sportsmanship. I know my students would love to have new games to play when they are stuck inside!
