In the fall, your students may need more attention devoted to this SEL skill, and cooperative games are a great way to begin building these relationship skills back up. Cooperative board games give students opportunities to establish and maintain healthy relationships through healthy communication, developing positive relationships, practicing teamwork, and resolving conflicts constructively.
Take a look at the video clip below of a group of 4 kindergarten students in an eLearning pod playing the cooperative board game Dragon Dash.
Do you notice how the students are practicing relationship skills while playing this game?
