    You might want to start by looking through: https://www.dmoz.org/Games/Developers_and_Publishers/

    Be advised that you'll want to have your game protected before showing it around:
    https://www.copyright.gov/fls/fl108.html
    https://www.rpglibrary.org/articles/faqs/copyright.php

    The first step you need to take is to talk to patent attorney to make sure you protect your idea.

    You do need to protect your idea. This most likely can be done with a copywrite for a game.

    I would suggest looking at games you enjoy, especially edcuational games and look to see who markets them or makes them. That would be a good place to start.

    The other method is to try to make some and then market them through educational stores or websites. It is pretty amazing what a good printer can do. You might be able to make some yourself to get started. The trick with this will be to find a distribution outlet. Who sells simliar type items. Approach them to see if they are interested in selling them.

    If you are really adventurous you can market them online yourself. The trick with this is to get some initial customers and get them to spread the word to other teachers.

    Hope this helps,
    Mike
