My Project

My 5th grade students are absolutely awesome! They arrive at school daily excited to see one another and are ready to learn! I want to give them more opportunities to foster those relationships!

Board games such as Pokémon Labyrinth and Chinese Checkers will give my students the opportunity to build classroom community with their peers.

They will have a chance to play the games in different groups sizes and with different classmates, bridging friendships across the classroom. These games will also foster problem-solving and social skills.

I have also included sketch pads, which I hope will give many students a creative outlet. Drawing and doodling can help them learn to write and think creatively. It also helps develop hand-eye coordination, hone analytic skills, and helps them conceptualize ideas.
