Grade-level WIN Bins filled with games and puzzles that build critical thinking.
The RequestStudents learn best when they are encouraged to think deeply, solve problems, and explore new ideas. The WIN Bins for All initiative brings engaging, hands-on enrichment opportunities to K–5 classrooms across the district, providing teachers with grade-level bins filled with thoughtfully selected games and puzzles that strengthen critical thinking, collaboration, and perseverance. The ImpactThis district-wide initiative ensures that every elementary student has access to meaningful enrichment during the WIN (What I Need) period. By incorporating unplugged activities that challenge students to think creatively and work together, the program helps build essential problem-solving skills while promoting equity and consistency across all elementary schools. “Every elementary student has access to meaningful enrichment during the WIN period — promoting equity and consistency across all elementary schools.”
