Name: Board Games In The Classroom
Start: 2025-07-20T19:20:00-0400
End: 2025-07-20T20:20:00-0400

Sunday July 20, 2025 7:20pm - 8:20pm EDT

In this session we will discuss the benefits of encouraging students to play board games- not video games- during free time in the classroom. I will also provide a lesson based on a board game to allow students to play a game as part of the curriculum. Board games can also be an excellent way for Multi Language Learners to build positive peer relationships and build confidence in the classroom.
