Game On! Building Social Skills Through Play

Board Games

Learning to navigate social interactions is just as important as learning academics! Thanks to this FPEF grant, teachers and specialists are introducing developmentally appropriate board games to teach cooperation and focus. Through hands-on game-play, students learn to follow multi-step rules, communicate effectively with teammates, and sustain attention during group activities. It’s an innovative, play-based approach that fosters a supportive classroom culture where every child can thrive socially and emotionally.
