Help me give my students engaging and interactive resources, like board games, to help them develop critical thinking, teamwork, and problem-solving skills while making learning fun and accessible.
I love how curious, creative, and enthusiastic my students are — they bring energy and imagination to everything they do! In our new Board Games elective, students will strengthen critical thinking, teamwork, communication, and strategy skills — all while having a blast.
Each board game we add to our classroom will open new opportunities for learning.
Strategy games will challenge their problem-solving skills. Cooperative games will build collaboration and communication. Dice games will encourage quick thinking and probability skills, while card games will sharpen memory, strategy, and adaptability. Every game we bring in will not just spark joy — it will help students grow as thinkers, teammates, and leaders!
Thank you for helping us make learning unforgettable (and really fun)!
More than half of students from low‑income households
