Goals and Objectives
Students will continue to learn the rules, objects and fine points of strategy related to different cards, tile and board games. Students will continue to help others learn and understand how to play too. Tolerance and patience will be stressed. The final day will be marathons of games chosen by students
ESLRs
To ensure students are familiar with the Expected School-wide Learning Results the class will focus on: Capability, responsibility and confidence. Playing card and board games strengthens a student’s ability to develop cognitive skills in strategizing, adjusting to changing situations, as well as flexibility, and persistence in adapting to new information. Playing games help students express ideas and thoughts with clarity and confidence. With confidence and knowledge, students become more responsible and are more willing to support others during collaboration.
