To my surprise many students never learned how to play chess or dominoes until now! My students were familiar with Checkers, Uno, and other electronic games. Many of them felt like Chess and Dominoes were \"old people games.\" Nevertheless, the more they became familiar with the strategies involved in learning how to \"think before you move,\" the more they applied the skills necessary to strategize with their debate opponents. \r\n\r\nStudents are now requesting to play chess and dominoes daily. Many of them look forward to completing their work in class in order to challenge themselves through these games. I was surprised at how many students had difficulty counting in multiples of five. This deficiency helped many of them with basic math skills. The excellent part was seeing several students strategically planning steps for success. \r\n\r\nDonors, thank you so much for giving my students an opportunity to learn something new. Students have developed skills that will help them in high school and beyond.","fullyFundedDate":1734519455594,"projectUrl":"project/chess-and-dominoes-makes-the-mind-think/8817809/","projectTitle":"Chess and Dominoes Makes the Mind Think & Strategize","teacherDisplayName":"Dr. Clark","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/8617947"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_87420","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":378,"numTeachers":25,"percentFrplEligible":91,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":57,"percentWhite":9,"percentIndigenous":3,"percentLatinx":12,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"15.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_FRINGE"},"inStateSupporters":43.3,"schoolId":87420,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Central High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Central High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/oklahoma/tulsa-public-schools/central-high-school/87420"}
