My Project

My students are incredibly curious and creative 4th and 5th graders. I see them engaged in critical thinking and problem solving. By having access to a variety of high-quality games, my students will develop their creativity and critical thinking skills.

"Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning"--Fred Rogers.

The activities in this project include some amazing games, Tenzi--a cool dice game, Itzi--a word game and Slapzi--a matching game. With these activities, we will continue to develop our awesome brains, practice collaboration and problem solving and build a stronger classroom community.

My students have so much passion for learning and growing and having fun together. Help us play to grow our brain power. Thank you for considering donating to our project!
