Let's Play the Board Games Together

  Gonca SOLMAZ/ Gaziemir BİLSEM 💻🎲 Turning Board Games into Digital Fun: A Proud eTwinning Moment! One of the highlights of our eTwinning project came from our talented student, Egehan, who turned the board game we co-created as partner schools into a fully playable online version using the Scratch programming platform! 🧠✨ After designing and building the game physically with recycled materials, Egehan took it one step further—he coded the entire game into an interactive digital format. The result? A fun, colorful, and highly engaging online game that brought everyone together once more. 🎮 During a live Zoom meeting, our students had the chance to play the digital version of the game together. It was an incredibly enjoyable and educational experience, combining coding, collaboration, and creativity—the true spirit of eTwinning! 👏 Huge congratulations to Egehan for his innovation and hard work!

  GONCA SOLMAZ/ GAZİEMİR SCIENCE AND ART CENTER Product: A new board game Responsible Teachers: Gonca Solmaz, Ruken Yılmaz Çalışan Google Document for Creating the Joint Product We brainstormed with all our friends during the design phase of our game. We decided to design it in 3 stages; physical activity, general knowledge and board games. We grouped the questions prepared by our teachers into our game template. Each group had a color. Students started the game by throwing dice. They answered the question group in the box according to the number they got. Students who knew the game continued by throwing dice again. The one who finished the game first won. While developing our general knowledge, we made it more enjoyable with physical activities and repeated the board games. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1M1q-V8xMVE39dvZHRZJFFDxCe76NyoOE/edit?usp=drive_link&ouid=107720481135895663850&rtpof=true&sd=true

The students played 3 different 'Race to the Finish' games. One with animals of the forest, one with animals of the Sea and one with the Solar System.They had to overcome some obstacles in order to be the fastest and win the race! Goals: Practising English and having fun at the same time.  

  Blockade is a game the students really loved and enjoyed. It is a strategic game requiring observation of opponent's moves, fantasy, critical thinking, problem solving skills. A fun and engaging game.

  Snakes and Ladders is a game kids love to play. A bit of luck and the fastest and luckiest wins! The students had to read the instructions about Healthy Dietary Habits and go up the ladders if they ate something healthy or go down a snake if not. Healthy and unhealthy food is part of the C' class curriculum so by playing the game they consolidated vocabulary learnt so far. The kids had a wonderful time and enjoyed themselves.

Q-BLITZ. A board game enhancing collaboration, communication, critical thinking, problem solving skills, concretation, hand dexterity. A game where students learn and have fun at the same time. My students were very enthusiastic and had a great time playing the game.  

  REVERSI -The students played another game which requires strategy, critical thinking, patience, problem solving skills, emotional maturity. They played the game using egg holders and the base we made for the other game, Blockade. Thus, they learned how Reusing objects can give a new life to our rubbish. This is part of our curriculum as well.

  Another fun game which requires thinking is the Corridor. Who can block all the corridors so that the other player cannot find his/her way out?
