TODAY'S GOAL: Explain pros and cons of skill and chance in a game.
(CST1: I can create a balanced game.)
DO NOW: Turn & Talk
What is a game that you are "good" at?
What makes you good at that game?
CIRCLE UP: Discuss...
Syllabus for the class.
Do you prefer games of skill or chance?
Explain why.
WORD/PHRASE/SENTENCE:
As a class, we will read Schell's Mechanics: "Skill vs. Chance"
As we read, select a word, a phrase, and a sentence that you feel are important for the text.
CONTINUUM:
Pick a random post-it note from the games we identified earlier in the semester.
Where do you think they are on the balance between skill and chance?
I USED TO THINK / NOW I THINK:
Do you still prefer games of skill (or chance)? Or did your thinking change after discussion?
What is the right balance?
