Games are a great and safe way to engage kids in their learning. I'll walk you through how I fixed and adapted established games, as well as how to think about making your own for the classroom.

Location:
JW / Room 103
Long Description:
As a teacher who loves games, I have been working for years on creating engaging experiences for my Middle School Math Classroom (don't stop reading! This can apply to many other grades and subjects!) I will walk you through how to "fix" already established games that ALMOST work, how to adapt established games that COULD work, and how I made simple games that PRETTY MUCH worked. If we have time, I'll walk-through a game-building review unit and some samples of students' work. I'll be handing out copies of the DIY games if interested and sharing a google drive with all the digital copies.
