My Project

Because of the high interests in game boards, and special make-up of my class, students need several sets of games that promote financial literacy skills. I attempted to purchase some games from garage sales, but they didn't last. The school doesn't have a fund for these. Many of my students asked repeatedly for the games mentioned above like the money and other games. I believe these students will benefit not only academically but socially too. Can you imagine on a rainy day an anti-social kid could engage in an intense conversation with an English Learner using Math and literacy skills? Yes, he/she would be learning and having fun at the same time.

That's why it is important that You help my class out by purchasing several game boards that I listed above.

I often wish on a rainy day when these students couldn't physically exercise, they can mentally be challenged.

Your help will surely brighten these students' spirits whether it rain or shine. Thank you in advance for your generosity and will to make a difference in children's lives.
