We have a large special education population at our elementary school, currently about 20% of our students have IEPs. This includes students with a wide range of learning differences, from learning disabilities, to autism, to health impairments, to cognitive disabilities. These amazing students are very capable of learning given the right environment, support, and learning tools.
My Project
Game-based learning is incredibly engaging to students. Once students have learned a skill, they need multiple opportunities to practice and reinforce what they have learned. Worksheets are one option, but many students find this type of practice boring and unengaging. An additional benefit of game-based learning is students improve their social skills as they work together.
Students can boost their math skills independently…with fun folder games they’ll love to play!
Each library features 10 different games that target key math standards—so children get the practice they need to really master math skills. Students just grab a color-coded folder filled with precut and sorted game pieces, then follow the step-by-step instructions to build skills at their own pace! Each folder comes with an answer card for easy self-checking, plus a bonus activity to reinforce skills even further.
