My Students

The students in my school often come from homes that are struggling to make ends meet, but they come every day to do their best and learn. We serve students in Kindergarten through sixth grade. Our goal is to get students reading on grade level and develop into confident problem solvers.

As my students realize they are successful problems solvers, they develop a greater confidence for all things in life.

My students are faced with challenges both in and out of the classroom on a daily basis and this confidence is key. The library is a place for students to escape from the reality of life and into books and critical thinking activities.

My Project

It all starts with an idea. Bloxels encourage collaboration while guiding students through a design thinking process. Using the Bloxels gameboard and blocks, students create their own layouts, characters, and art for their game.

Students can instantly turn their physical creations into a digital game with Bloxels.

They can create a unique and individual game by editing and customizing everything - what it looks like and how elements interact and behave.

Students have the power to create stories with their games. This would be a great tool to use in the library for students to piggy back on the stories we are using in class and also to create their own.
