The seniors finished up the quarter with a culminating novel project. They had to work to together in order to create an intricate board game that included official rules and instructions on how to play and trivia questions that covered information they learned from their novel. For their final grade, the students had to play each other's games. The goal was for students to answer the trivia questions and navigate the games successfully. Watching them collaborate and utilize their creativity has been enjoyable to watch.
