In Game Time, students are explicitly taught the skills needed to play structured and unstructured games with peers. Participants are encouraged to apply cognitive flexibility scripts and strategies, such as Plan A/Plan B, Big Deal/Little Deal, Compromises, and Expect the Unexpected. The program helps children manage the common challenges of game playing, such as not going first, taking turns, and winning and losing gracefully. Based on the current circumstances, special emphasis will be placed on playing games in a virtual environment.
