Incorporating Debate Board Games in the Writing

Help me give my students literature gaming! Board games can be used to motivate reluctant writers, creative impulses, and social communities. Students will inspire a “state of play” in participants giving them a brain break with creativity!

My Project

ncorporating board games in the writing classroom to meet multiple needs with visual, auditory, and debating!

Board games can meet language development and instead of writing for IEP students, students can respond orally.

Systematic reviews indicate that board games help students strengthen their critical thinking skills, storytelling abilities, inquiry skills, problem-solving skills, collaboration skills, motivation, educational outcomes, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning, retention abilities, reasoning skills, discussion abilities, social connections, vocabulary and grammar acquisition.

Debatable: Debatable all players are politicians taking turns debating both serious and silly topics using creative debate strategies like "Deny everything", "Resort to personal attacks", and "Use made-up science to support you" (Amazon).

Lion in the Way: ROAR! How would you get past a lion? Would you float over him with a balloon or offer him a cookie? eeBoo's Lion in My Way Game is a journey along a path of hazards and barriers which are overcome by the collective cleverness of the players. Armed with the unlikely tools they are dealt, imagination and some silliness, players cooperate creatively to innovate solutions that let them get home together. Illustrated by Saxton Freymann (Amazon).
