My Project
I have students who are wanting to learn chess and other strategy games to play with their friends. They absolutely love to challenge themselves and push their way of thinking. I have a few games in my classroom. The students have never played them at home so they are interested in learning them. I have never had so many students interested in these logic puzzles and board games!
I want to be able to help them push their way of thinking!
These logic puzzles and games would allow the students to think about problems in different ways. It would encourage perseverance, flexibility and problem solving. All skills students need! These logic puzzles and games are a great way to get students away from their electronic devices and allow them to use their brains in ways they never thought they could. I love this group of students because they want a challenge and they want to challenge each other!
Nearly all students from low‑income households
