Board Games B327 KS.3&4<br />

Strategic board games give students the opportunity to think logically and tactically about<br />

how to overcome problems. Many of the games we play involve the students working<br />

together to beat the game rather than competing with each other, so it helps students<br />

to learn to work together to achieve a goal. Other games involve planning ahead and<br />

implementing ideas to help them defeat their opponents. If you want to dominate the<br />

world or work with your friends to defeat a common enemy, this is the ASA for you.<br />
