My Project

My students work hard to earn their classroom money. One thing they can buy with their classroom money is a ten minute break with a friend. We had a friend generously donate a coffee table to us already. We'll use the cushions around the coffee table to sit on.

On the coffee table will be an ongoing puzzle that students can choose to work on.

Students can also choose a quick board game to play together. Not only are students working on earning their classroom money, but they're also learning to work together on the puzzles and board games.
