WIN SOME AND LOSE SOME
• Look at the horrors of war through an example
• I am really proud of those who finished those projects today
• Breakdown the two battles that Patriots competed in at the time
STUDIOUS STUDENTS
• Start by coming up with the generals in this battle
• Next those 2 commanders each need four majors
• The rest of the class will be Sergeants on each side
FINDING THE COMBATANTS
• We have just entered in the color battle
• The goal is to use the desks to establish warzones
• When you walk to a desk if your color has more people then you hold the zone
• We will have five rounds to see who has more captured land
RED VS. BLACK
• Your battle level is the number of letters that are in your name for instance David Yancey is 11
• The combined total of each location for each side is the power level of the zone
• If you are at a zone where you are overpowered then you have to be removed from the activity for two rounds
• Every round I will choose 2 desks that will be danger zones that will KO all players that choose it
LET THE BATTLE BEGIN
• If you take a zone drop a colored playing card so we can keep track of locations
• You might want to work together somewhat but not too much
• How can we see what this will lead to?
• Let’s start!!
