Zathura Academic Event
ISC - Amman
November 06, 2014The SLO® Academic Department built a life sized board game hinging on rolling a dice and determining the nmber of moves each student has to make.
Depending on where the player lands, the student has to either answer an academic question or perform a challenge.
Questions are related to the students’ classwork in Math, Science, Arabic and English whereas challenges range from wearing a clown nose, taking a picture with a teacher, collecting items around the school, or having legs tied together for the whole game.
Whether a question, or a challenge, one thing is for sure, all participating students had a blast.
