The Power of Play: Bring an Official Pokémon Club to Your School

When student passion, play, and belonging drive learning, engagement follows. In this session, K-12 educators will discover how Pokémon Clubs can serve as high-impact afterschool programs that build community, foster social-emotional learning, and empower student leadership. See how clubs combine gameplay, creative activities, and peer-led experiences while remaining accessible to all learners. Participants will learn how to launch an official Pokémon Club as a new ISTE member benefit and access exclusive educator resources like the Pokémon Club Kit and Club Coordinator online community. Clubs are available to members in the U.S. and Canada.
