Through
all of the decades of education many resources have been used to try to make
learning more fun. Teaching aids dating back to School House Rock to Kahoot
have been implemented in many lesson plans to give students a break from the
traditional school work. New resources are being invented every day to make
teaching easier. I came across a website called the “Problem Site.” The Problem Site is loaded with great games for students. Some of the
games are traditional “hang-man” style games, some of the games are traditional
games with a twist,
and some of the games are completely new to me. Each game is designed to help
students develop problem solving skills. The games are categorized as word
games, math games, or strategy games. Similar to many other resources The
Problem Site ranges from kindergarten to high school. Teachers can definitely
add this to their repertoire when students get tired of Kahoot.

I like this site because it works for multiple content areas, and provides students with a general skillset that can be used in any classroom and in real life. Kids love games, even if they're learning games. This website gives them freedom to grow their math abilities in games that they pick and have fun with. Kahoot is not the end-all be-all! This is a great way to diversify the use of technology in the classroom.
