A2 Some students with exceptional needs benefit from the structure that board games provide. It provides a safe space where the rules govern interactions with peers. #mbedchat

[Mike Heilmann @mrheilmann]

A2: ENGAGEMENT is a big one for me. #mbedchat

[Mike Heilmann @mrheilmann]

A1: Welcome @CPellizzaro ! Gaming can be as easy as grabbing a board game or video game and adding it your student's day. #mbedchat That's where @warren24fps and I started.
