Board+Game+Instructions


 * __The Galileo Game of Life! __**

__ Your task: __

Create a board game that the incoming Chapman students will be able to play in their first week of Galileo.

The board game is intended to provide them with an introduction to Galileo – the //who’s, what’s, where’s, how’s// and//why’s//; along with a sampling of the amazing highs and occasional challenges…

__ The Basics: __

- Your board game will require players to move around a grid, responding to instructions written inside the squares. - The first person to reach ‘finish’ is the winner. - All of the scenarios and challenges will relate to Galileo’s key aspects: Team Project, Community Service, Camp, Trails, Skills Workshops. - Design the board game so that it highlights one of Galileo’s separate stages, for example: - You will need to create the instructions that will be on the board as well as a series of challenge cards [see template on wiki].
 * ‘Weekly Themes’,
 * ‘Team Project stages’ or,
 * The overall structure of Galileo.

 * 4) **<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">4 squares that offer punishments: **<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> e.g. ‘You forgot to ask Dr. Benson for permission to put up posters, move back 2 squares’, or, ‘you slept in and ran late for community service – AGAIN! You miss the next turn’.
