Mind Building Games

Help me give my students logic games for fast finishers once they complete their assigned work.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Nixon's classroom raised $237

This project is fully funded

My Students

The two things that my students get excited about are reading and science. They love reading books together as a class. They especially love funny stories and weird facts about nature. They absolutely love hands on experiments in science.

My students come from all different ethnic backgrounds and cultures, but all of them are excited to learn new, interesting things.

They love learning learning about how things work and the world around them. They are love helping our school community.

My Project

This variety of logic puzzles will be a great addition to our classroom. At times, after students have completed their assigned work they find that they have a few extra minutes while other students are finishing up. Having these puzzles will be an exciting, educational, and fun way for them to use their extra time.

Not only will students be ecstatic about these new puzzles, but these puzzles will also help my students increase their spacial reasoning and problem solving skills.

Students will also be motivated to complete their work so they can have the opportunity to use the puzzles.
