Hi Laticia,
This is a great approach to teaching this subject matter. There are three aspects of instructional delivery. The social impact, meaning how the students have to interact with each other to be successful, cognitive, the use of academic knowledge to be successful, and physical, the use of fine or gross motor skills to complete the assignment. By bringing in the emotional aspect you are expanding the learning from just rote to application and acceptance. These both are powerful learning motivators for students.
