What's YOUR favorite game?
Students are researching games in the library this week.
They're asking these questions:
-How do you play?
-What's fun?
-What would you change?
Talk about the games your family loves to play and how you could create a game based on one of your favorites. We invite families to bring their games to Eat, Play, Build on September 29 from 5:00-6:30 to share their creation with other families! We'll have games outside the library in "Arcade Alley." YOUR games inspire others!
Dates to remember:
Sept. 29, 5:00-6:30 p.m.: Eat, Play Build Family Event where you can make your child's game at school, shop the book fair & purchase a tasty meal prepared by our DKIES PTO
Oct. 6: 12:50-1:50 Schoolwide Cardboard Challenge: Students bring their games to school for their peers to play
