We've been using the board games during our Academic Support time to build skills like problem solving, communication, and teamwork. One of my favorite moments was watching a group of students who don't usually work together fully engaged in a game, encouraging each other and celebrating small wins. It created a natural way for them to practice patience and critical thinking without it feeling like work, which is something many of my students really need.\r\n\r\nWhen the games first arrived, the excitement was immediate. Students were asking to open them right away, and there was a buzz in the room that I don't always see during a typical class period. Even students who can be hesitant to participate were eager to join in. It gave them a chance to feel successful and connected, and I've already noticed that carrying over into other parts of our classroom.\r\n\r\nMoving forward, I plan to keep using the games in more structured ways, like rotating through stations that focus on strategy, math thinking, and social skills. I also want students to start reflecting on their gameplay by thinking about what worked, how they communicated, and how they handled challenges. Your support has given my students more than just games. It has given them a space to grow, connect, and actually enjoy learning.","fullyFundedDate":1777388169851,"projectUrl":"project/game-on-building-minds-and-friendships/10000531/","projectTitle":"Game On!
