Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
"UGH! Indoor recess...again! There is nothing to do!" I hear this all the time! Please help my students get some new games to play during indoor recess! My students are an awesome group of young people who are fun and energetic. They love to learn, but they also love to have fun. We live in a state with cold, snowy winters, so my students spend at least 4-5 months inside for recess. Sitting around with nothing to do can lead to trouble!
Having some entertaining games and activities during this time would be a lot of fun for my students.
It would make having to stay inside much more inviting. Since they spend so much of their free time playing video and computer games, I think board games and card games will encourage social skills and teach them how to interact with their classmates.
Having a bunch of new board games to play with during indoor recess would be an awesome treat for my students. Rainy, cold, and snowy days keep them inside and new games would keep them busy, and out of trouble. Thanks.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
