Outdoor Checkers


Our students love the outdoor checker board Dr. Rountree had set up in the park.  They use it every day.  Sometimes they enjoying playing one-on-one and sometimes teams play each other.  Coach Moody and Coach Collins introduced the game and set the procedures.

Checkers are a great way to learn to problem solve and use strategies.  You have to learn to think ahead.  It is a fantastic visual-spatial activity.
