appropriate games to their lessons which that caters to the initial

thinking skills of the pupils.

3.Cooperative and Adventure Games Workshop

 At the end of the workshop, teachers will be able to craft lessons

 with games that build feeling of worth, let children play for play’s

sake, encourage children to play with one another and in the

process eliminate fear of failure.

4.Games for all Learning Environments

Going beyond basic social games, this session will explore the use

of games in the classroom and other learning environments to

develop language arts, remedial math, social skills and high order

thinking skills. Some sample topics: Using cooperative games to

help cultivate an understanding of the different modes of problem

solving; Using games to provide an unexpected approach tounderstanding math skills; Using party games to understand how

to break things into logical steps; Using word games to uncover

areas of strength and difficulty.
