Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 1200

Let me say I love these games and so do the students! They have brought so much joy and happiness into my office. I can grab a game and play with a student who might be shy or quiet and they open right up. When I have a group of students in my room these are great ice breakers and even converatison starters for all ages. It lightens the mood and gets us talking about topics we might have not even throught of. Thank you Derya Onaran and Perna-Rose Foundation for Hope for thinking of me. As a school counsloer I see students of all ages and these games has made my days here even more fun!

Original Grant Overview

Goal

As a school counselor, my goal is to have in-depth conversations with students daily. These games will help with those nerves and create a friendly fun environment for all.  

 

What will be done with my students

Students the age of 5 to 11 years old come into my office every day. When they come in, I enjoy talking with them about whichever topic they would like. The conversation might be about what is on their mind. Or the student and I can be working on different skills together throughout the duration of time. When I have these games available in my office I will be able to grab anyone that fits the topic of conversation or lesson. These games create a fun and relaxing way to have those in-depth conversations with students that might not happen when talking one on one.  

 

Benefits to my students

Each game focuses on a different social-emotional skill. For example, one game is about different ways to express your feelings. If a student or small group comes in to see me, we'd be able to play a game. Each game includes a game board/activity and different scenario cards and questions to get the conversations going. When students are playing a game they are much more relaxed and can start opening up about different topics that might not come up when we are having a conversation. This helps me as a counselor to dive deeper into any topic and have fun at the same time. All of these games are great for individual meetings with students and the different groups I see throughout the year.
