Needham Community Education

If you enjoy Magic The Gathering and/or Yahtzee, you will LOVE Dice Throne, which combines the best of both games into one. Dice Throne is an action-packed dice and card game combo where you choose a hero, shuffle their deck, upgrade your abilities, roll some dice, play some cards, and maybe even activate your Ultimate Ability. Get your opponent's health to zero before they do the same to you and you win! We'll spend the week learning the basics of the game and try the different play styles: 1 vs 1, team play, and free-for-all. The end of the week will culminate in a Dice Throne tournament with one student becoming the Dice Throne Champion! With so many versions of Dice Throne available, we’ll have a variety on hand so you can master one specific version or test them all!

ACTIVE EXPLORATIONS: In addition to the outdoor movement and break times planned by each instructor, students participating in full-day Summer Explorations classes will enjoy a 40-minute active break each day led by highly qualified Needham Public School P.E. and Wellness Instructors. During this time, students will head to the gym or venture outside to get some fresh air and move their bodies. Whether it's a brisk walk around the grounds, high-energy running games and relay races, or exciting team sports and activities, this time is a great way to break up the day, get some energy out, and boost focus for the rest of class!
