Parker Brothers and Milton Bradley...here we come!

I think we definitely have some great game makers in Room 8. You should drop by and take a look.

The directions were:
1. Design a board game around a theme we have studied. 2. Rules have to be written so the game is easily understood.
3. Cards must be incorporated into the game in some way.
4. The game needs to be able to be played between 20 - 40 minutes.
5. At least 3 people need to be able to play.

Well, Room 8 is definitely into this assignment. Friday morning started out a bit rainy...so Room 8ers were in the room before school instead of outside. By the time 8:45 a.m. rolled around, every student - except 2 - were involved in working on their game. So... since we're flexible in Room 8, they just continued working until the 10:30 recess! Emma and ShawnaAustin and TrevorCarlo and Devin... (I think Devin wants his dentist to go ahead and check him now...from this blog)I absolutely love this picture of Casey J and Edin...EmilyJacob and Dillon's theme is Native Americans. In the corner are 4 of their homes. In the lower left corner is a river with a traditional native american canoe.

This next week, which I can hardly believe is our last week, we'll take an afternoon and play each others games.

Don't forget our barbeque on Thursday!
