Students will love creating their own board game that they can play with their friends!
This Game Board project can be used in all subjects, such as to reinforce math facts, review questions in Social Studies or Science, or just for fun! Teachers could also have their students copy their finished board game to create an Answer Key.
Teachers can use this as a final assessment or culminating project to finish a unit. Then, students will enjoy celebrating their achievement by playing their games together at the end! Teachers can print out and laminate the games and set them up in different stations around the room so that students can travel around and try out each one. This could also be a great addition to a parent's night, science or math fair, or other school community showcase.
Remember teachers, for each assignment in Storyboard That you can add as many templates as you wish! This can help to differentiate assignments but also increases engagement by providing student choice. For more templates to add to this assignment, check out our game poster templates!

Objective: Create a board game that demonstrates your understanding of our unit.
Student Instructions:
Incoraggia gli studenti a condividere i loro giochi e a fornire feedback costruttivi tra loro. La revisione tra pari sviluppa il pensiero critico e aiuta gli studenti a migliorare i loro design di giochi.
Spiega cosa rende utile un feedback—focalizzati su suggerimenti specifici e commenti positivi. Gli studenti si sentono più a loro agio nel condividere quando le aspettative sono chiare.
Fai ruotare gli studenti e far giocare i giochi degli altri in piccoli gruppi. Questo espone gli studenti a una varietà di idee e permette loro di vedere come funzionano diversi design in azione.
Offri agli studenti un modulo breve con domande come “Una cosa che mi è piaciuta…” e “Un suggerimento che ho…”. Questo mantiene il feedback mirato e praticabile.
Permetti agli studenti di leggere i loro feedback e apportare miglioramenti rapidi ai loro giochi. Questo passo rafforza il valore della critica costruttiva e aiuta gli studenti a prendersi responsabilità del loro apprendimento.
Board game projects are a fun, interactive way to review a unit. Have students create games that include questions and challenges based on key unit concepts. This reinforces learning and lets students demonstrate understanding while playing with classmates.
Easy steps include: 1) Choose a topic or review questions; 2) Design the board and add spaces, numbers, or symbols; 3) Write instructions; 4) Create question cards or prompts; 5) Make or choose tokens; 6) Print and laminate for durability.
Differentiate by offering multiple templates, allowing students to choose topics, or adjusting complexity of questions. You can also let students work alone or with partners and provide extra support or challenge as needed.
Board game activities work well in math, science, social studies, and language arts. They're great for reinforcing facts, vocabulary, or comprehension—basically any subject where review questions or concepts can be included in gameplay.
Yes! Student-made board games are excellent as a final assessment or culminating project. They show understanding of the unit and encourage creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking.
