Year 8 Millenium Development Goals Board Game

This week we will be starting the tasks that will help you in your Africa assessment. It's all about the Millennium Development Goals. You are going to create a board game that will help teach people what the goals are all about and how they are going to impact Africa.

In the next few lessons you will have time in class to:
1. Make a plan for what your board game will look like
2. Do the research that will inform your game pieces
3. Design and construct your board game
4. Play and assess other group's attempts

So what do you need to do now? Research, research and more research! Check out these websites to learn a lot about what the MDGs are trying to do: http://www.undp.org/mdg/basics.shtml

Focus on what each goal is, how each could be met, and the effort to meet these goals in African countries.

Good luck!
