My Project

Students in grades 6th through 8th gather together after school and talk, play, and have fun with Pokémon Club! Students bring their devices, cards to play and trade, and create challenges amongst themselves. Many students come to our club without a device and just watch others play, so being able to have a device and games available to these students would make their experience even more great and they would be able to collaborate and communicate with other players during this time. The Nintendo Switch is able to be shared with other players and able to connect with the classroom Smartboard. Of course, with the Nintendo Switch, these kids need some Pokémon games to go with it, so a couple of Pokémon games are needed as well. Please help me get a device for students without the means to have one, and be able to play and be fully immersed in the Pokémon Club!
