Never BORED with BOARD Games!

Help me give my students an opportunity for math and science enrichment and fun. Often the monotony of daily routines take away students’ enthusiasm. Board games are the missing link to bridge the gap between learning and excitement.

My Students

My incredible group of fifth graders are bright, confident, and lifelong learners. Testing into NEST+m, these students from all five boroughs are eager, dedicated, and motivated to improve their academic skills and social and emotional growth. They yearn to become the best versions of themselves in the classroom and the real world, and are undoubtedly the kindest, most genuine, and excitable kids I have ever met. NEST+m grade five students come from diverse backgrounds, social settings, and economic resources, but come with a common goal of gaining the most out of the school day. Their desire to learn is mature beyond their years and I am excited to begin the school year with these amazing group of individuals.

My Project

Additionally, the Board games are an enriching way to promote enjoyment in the classroom while still providing an educational experience. With your absolute generosity and thoughtfulness, students in my class will get to enjoy engaging in these games as an enrichment tool, work cooperatively towards a common goal, and have fun along the way. Every week, the students will be able to use the games as reinforcement of the content being taught. As we work through topics including PEMDAS, prime numbers, computation, and logic, their skills are honed by your incredible donation. These games provide a happy break from the traditional school day and offer them a chance to apply that which they learned to a unique setting and experience. Additionally, the microscope and science games are items that will be used tremendously in the classroom. Given that we do not have a digital microscope, kids will be exposed to different visuals that they would normally never get to see. For all this, we are truly grateful for your help and support to make these dreams possible.
