My Project
Our world history and geography classrooms are mixed 10, 11, and 12th grade and are comprised of students from very diverse socio-economic backgrounds, learning styles, English language learners, special education, and advanced placement. Our students are amazing and easy to engage but getting them to talk with each other and develop team problem solving skills is challenging.
Puzzles and games are a great low pressure way for students to casually engage different parts of their brains, build relationships with each other, and get a chance to see and appreciate others' learning and thinking styles.
The size and complexity of these chosen items are challenging enough to engage the students, and simple enough to be done quickly as a warm-up to ease them into the more complex lessons of the day. These tools easily engage all levels and styles of learners. Cellphones continue to be one of the greatest distractions and barriers for students to fully engage and focus- having a dedicated place for cell phones to go helps set the space and intention for students to be present and engage with each other.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
