Based on the examples you have heard and seen in class, you will be creating your own Five Themes Game Card. The instructions below are given step by step to help guide you along. Also, there is a diagram on the back of this sheet that will help you in setting up your card correctly. Remember that we will be playing the game and may use your card, so valid, understandable clues are important.

Information Gathering

1. Randomly pick two color-coded slips of paper. Each slip of paper is color-coded according to region and represents the city to which you have been assigned. Make sure you do not have two cities from the same region.

2. Using the Internet, research your cities. Take notes on the graphic organizer provided.

3. Use each of the Five Themes to write a clue or question about your city (i.e. one question for each - location, place, movement, human-environment-interaction, and region).

The Layout

SIDE ONE

· Type your name in the bottom right hand corner.

· Locate a picture of a unique and interesting physical or human characteristic of your city. Insert the picture on the top half of the card.

· Find a map that shows the location of your city in relation to the region of the world it is in and copy/paste it onto the bottom half of the card.

SIDE TWO

· Type each of the five clues on the back of the card. Number them in reverse order. (This is how we will score points – 5 for a correct answer on the first clue, 4 for a correct answer on the second clue, etc.)

· Type the answer at the bottom.
