This was, I'm sure for many students, one of the more fun days in class (among others). We had to bring a game to class and let others play it in groups of three or four. I brought "Worst Case Scenario" board game, but instead played good '
ol Monopoly. It was extremely fun and everyone got into it. all the while I kept making notes on a
piece of paper next to me. Here is a sample of what I was jotting down whilst I dished out money:
--upset for paying up'
--property
--numbers
--chance
--laughing
--"noooooo!"
--"haha!"
--jail time!
--become the wealthiest player
--excitement
--revenge
--color coded
--math
--high adrenaline rush
On Wednesday we then proposed our own games to the class in a quick presentation (well, I came up with many different ideas, so I took the longest). My games ranged from 21 (drinking games) to 4 and 10 year-olds and up.
Game day was definitely one of the better days in class. It was nice for a change to not have to take notes or to be one your toes. Listening to other game ideas was also interesting. I liked seeing the creativity that came out of people.
