Dungeons & Dragons
Dungeons and Dragons is a roleplaying game about storytelling in the world of swords and sorcery. It is driven by imagination and how a fantasy adventurer, that a student creates, might react to different challenges. Players will create a character and interact with an environment that is made by other students. Mathematics, reading, writing, and speaking skills can all be enhanced by participating in this group.
