Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

The students in my elective, "The Art of the Game" are getting a chance to stretch their imaginations and use their artistic talents. As a math teacher, of course I'm sneaking in plenty of probability as well as technical writing - games need directions, after all.

We will be hosting a mini-gaming convention to show off their work at the end of the semester, the pizza boxes, tokens, tagboard, poker chips, dice, markers, and other materials will help them create games they are proud of.

They are creating playable prototypes of their own games (or artistic re-skins of existing ones) and I don't want lack of supplies to limit their ideas.
