My Students

My school is a low-income school with around 50% of all students being on free or reduced lunch. My group of students range from advanced STEM ability to resource and special education. They are hard-working, challenging, and diverse students who just need a little boost and a glimpse at a different world. My particular demographic for this project are those students that don't really fit in anywhere else and need a group with similar interests, talents, and hobbies. I love their enthusiasm and creativity!

My Project

Words and language are vital parts of most educational realms. These games will help students with their language arts and communication skills.

From roots and word parts to argument and descriptive writing skills, students will have access to a wide variety of wonderful learning games; they'll be having so much fun, they won't even realize they are learning!

Second-language learners will find the non-threatening atmosphere of games a relaxing way to increase their language acquisition skills, and the games with pictures will make this learning even more accessible.

Honors students will find the ability to scale the difficulty and challenge level in most of the games will provide a unique learning experience for their type of learning needs.
