Take into consideration the age of the learners within the classroom. Ensure that the toys are sensitive to both developmental and chronological ages of the learners. This way you are able to maintain both their interest and their active participation.
Choose games that suite each student's learning style and abilities. Consider choosing games that allow the learners to make decisions and also games that are open-ended with no wrong or right conclusions.
Play board games to enhance the learners' social and interactive skills. Create, simplify or omit some board game rules so as to reflect the students' developmental and capacity needs.
Create a communal game space in the classroom for your learners. The ThinkFun Game Club program provides an organized structure for playing games together in a group. Teachers can access essential learning resources to coordinate the Game Club program in their classrooms.
Encourage your students to understand a game's instructions by writing them down. Teach them one game at a time, then ask them to write out how they play the game. Complement their understanding of the game with your own instructions. Some students understand and enjoy a game by forming instructions in their own way.
