Time to Learn and Time to Play!

Help me give my students time to be a kid with structured downtime.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Acker's classroom raised $210

My Project

My students deserve a chance to be a kid. They work so hard in class to learn basic skills, these games and interactive activities will give them a chance to play with their peers in a structured setting. They will learn basic strategies and logic, how to follow rules, and how to be both a gracious winner and loser.

These games and activities will allow my students the chance to interact with their peers in a positive structured environment.

These activities will serve as positive reinforcers for completing work and doing their best with their daily school work.
