File Folder Board Game (30 points)



File Folder Board Game

You will be creating a file folder board game about your state. You want to make sure that you plan before you begin. The goal is to give as much information and make it fun for you and your friends to play. Make sure to take your time. Accuracy, creativity, and neatness all play a roll in your overall grade. The following steps must be followed to be considered complete.

What you’ll need:

• Manila file folders (see you teacher for this)

• Colorful markers

• Index cards

• Clear vinyl adhesive paper

• Small toys or coins

• Die

Step 1: Pick one file folder to use for each game. Open the folder, and draw the game board on the inside, placing squares around the outside of the folder.

Step 2: Choose a corner square as the starting point for the game. Label it "START," and then number the rest of the squares around the board in order. Label the last square "FINISH." Plan what kid of questions you will ask about your state.

Step 3: Fill in most of the squares with different state symbols and write a multiple choice question for each square, and put each answer on a separate index card so players can check their answers as they play.

Step 4: Make the rest of the squares penalty squares. During the game, anyone landing on a penalty square will have to go back a few spaces or start over, for example. (You get to make up the rules!)

Step 5: Decorate the board by drawing colorful pictures or designs with markers, write the name of your game on the file tab.

Step 6: Use small toys or coins for game pieces.

Step 7: Once you've developed all the rules and the object of the game (for example, to be the first to get all the way around the board), create an instruction sheet that tells what the game is about and how to play it. Play the game with a friend by rolling a die to determine how many squares each player will advance. Make sure to do this before you turn it in so that you know the game works.
