Help me give my students hands on learning experiences using board games,such as Genotype, Cytosis, Cellulose and activity card games based on the science standards taught in Biology.

My Project
My students come from different backgrounds with many different learning styles. Hands on learning has always been a part of the science curriculum. Using board games and activity based card games will allow my students to conquer the content taught in Biology.
These resources will be used to intrigue and enhance their interest in science, while promoting critical thinking and problem solving skills.
Students will engage in learning and have fun while being exposed to difficult concepts like genetics, cell structure and function, evolution and ecosystems.
These resources can be used in a student centered environment individually, with a partner or in small groups. They can also be used in a whole group setting led by the teacher.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
