Game of Life Program Creation
@ Acton Academy East Bay
Guide & Assistant Head of School
In my previous role, I designed and implemented Game of Life, a comprehensive life skills curriculum focused on real-world adult responsibilities. I developed hands-on instructional activities, such as managing personal finances, navigating taxes, and simulating childcare, to engage students in practical learning. The curriculum was continuously evaluated and adjusted to ensure alignment with learning objectives, fostering essential skills for post-college life.
