My Project
I would like to help my students get access to games that will assist them in building their critical thinking skills. Building critical thinking is something that helps student become better problem solvers. My students need Connect Four, checkers and other games to be able to become more self-aware about the things that are going on around them. The various games will be used in our school daily to help my students learn to play the game, but to also help them understand the mental process of checkers, Jenga and Connect Four. These are games that helps adults and children practice being more focused and to also help them develop foresight. These various boards will have a positive impact on my students for years to come.
More than half of students from low‑income households
