I am an integrated arts teacher who teaches a class called T.E.A.M. which stands for Together Everyone's Assets Matter. All students come to this class for 45 minutes every 6 days and our school has almost 800 kids. One thing I would love to teach the students are social and life skills such as sharing, cooperation and organization. I have chosen age-appropriate games to specifically teach kids how to play.
My goal with this lesson is not only to have a chance for kids to work together to play games but how to appropriately work with each other when they don't agree. These games and skills will be used in their homeroom classrooms when we have days they can't go outside. These games get them off of the computers and get them to work face-to-face with others in a fun way.
