My Students

Our students are highly motivated, intelligent and bright. However, they often need an activity that sparks their imagination. They need something to make learning fun for them!

I have been teaching English as a new language for the past 3 years and English and Mathematics are two of the essential skills that my students need to succeed in life.

I polled my students and it seems many of them love the idea of fantasy. I then told them about a game I had grown up playing: Dungeons and Dragons. They loved the idea of sharpening their math and English skills by rolling dice, working together and learning new vocabulary. But we need the materials such as players handbook, monster manual, and dungeon masters guide.

Please help!

My Project

These items will offer:

- Enough handbooks for students to make characters

- Enough monsters to fill adventures

- Examples of character choices that each student can choose so they can become that individual character to help in role playing situations

- A dungeon master guide so I can run the adventures for them

- Supplements so students can enhance their characters as they see fit

- Dice so students can roll and use math to sharpen their thinking skills

- A map to play on

- And a great beginning adventure to get started!

They will be read to go!
