Tell me about a victory that you

have felt. How was it a victory and why

did you succeed?Tell me about a

time when you had a defeat. How was it a defeat and how could you avoid it happening in the

future?

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!!
