My Project

My 4th-grade students would love to have new board games to play during indoor recess. These “soft skills” are so important for everyone to have, and many students are missing out on playing fun, old-school games with their classmates.

Many of the board games we have are missing pieces or appear very worn.

We would love to have new, engaging games that the students can play in small groups.

Students need more opportunities to win, lose, and play with each other with positive interactions. The board games will provide the structure to nurture game-playing skills.
