Our students love to gamify their learning. This game is called “red light green light math” …created by Tiana and Rydyr.
In Mrs. Eckert's class, when her students create a game, they discuss potential rules, play it, gather together as a group at the end of a round, and reflect on the successes in procedure and how we could make the game more fluid and effective. Then, they try again with alterations.
Incredible creativity and critical thinking!
We love the enthusiasm!!! #GoDemons
