Making Gains Through Playing Games

Help me give my students engaging and educational board games to give them weekly opportunities to work on skills like problem-solving, communicating, cooperation, and good sportsmanship.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dupré's classroom raised $302

My Project

We have a beautifully diverse classroom with twenty-five brilliant third graders. They are passionate about many topics (marine biology, civil rights, soccer, and art, to name a few!) and work hard to master the third grade standards every day.

Board games are a great way for students to learn and practice all kinds of skills.

On Fun Game Fridays, students will be able to select the game they want to play. They may be working on skills such as following directions, problem solving, cooperation, good sportsmanship, and even third grade specific skills such as multiplication, division, and fractions.

Additionally, I am asking for personal watercolors to cut down on prep time for me, and to give students an opportunity to show responsibility by taking care of their watercolor pallet for the year.
