My Project

My 6th grade students are so eager to learn but often times dislike the subject of math. My goal as their teacher is to create math moments that keep them engaged and also learn how to communicate their ideas with their group members. These board games will give them fun opportunities to practice their fundamental skills in an engaging way.

Through these activities, games, and projects that I find on Teachers Pay Teachers, students are able to relate concepts to their real life and have fun while doing it.

Students will learn how to work together to solve certain challenges based on the concept of the day.
