My Project

Board games have been used to sharpen skills and exercise human brains for thousands of years.

Board games now can help students learn communication skills, critical thinking skills, exercise creativity, and the sky's the limit.

I am requesting materials like Magna-Tiles, K'NEX, LEGOs, Clip Connect as well as classic board games like Jenga, Kerplunk, Hedbanz and more.

These games will be used for my students to explore in fun, creative and exciting ways. The goal is to use them to encourage cooperation and build the skills needed to strategize.

My students are amazing and have worked so hard this year in school. They need is some fun and they have earned it! Please help us add some fun games that will build community, creativity and cognition.
