All classes were scheduled for an hour each to play the different games in the school hall during the week. The game tables were facilitated by parent volunteers who guided the pupils by teaching them how to play the various games and by highlighting the different learning points or strategies of the games.
The games were carefully selected for their potential to teach thinking skills as well as its relevance to the different subject areas like language arts and mathematics. Playing games also allowed pupils to learn in a fun and visual/kinesthetic manner which breaks the usual classroom routine.
Pupils were fully involved in all the games and yearned for more such future opportunities.
