It is the same game as Battle for Japan, just a bit updated.
I have added now up to 10 teams.
How to use:
Edit the slides with questions and answers (slides 5-22) . Blue slides for easy questions, green intermediate questions, and orange for difficult questions.
To start the game go to the “Let’s play” slide (3).
Click the ninjas to go to question selection slide (4). Click on the buildings to go to each questions. The small buildings for easier questions (blue slides) and the larger buildings for more difficult questions.
Click on the map to return to “Let’s play” slide (3).
Click on a prefecture to change color, keep clicking till you get desired color. There is 10 color choices, one for each group.
Then click on ninjas to go question selection slide.
The rules of the game are up to you. The territories can be selected randomly or have the students choose.
1 territory –> 1 point.
Click on the banners on the “Let’s play” slide to go to winner slide. There is only one sldie, but you can click on teh samurai to change the background to teh winning team's color.
Be prapared to take up a whole class. To make it easier I have students write the prefecture they want on a white board along with their answers.
If you are aksing why you would need so many teams, well I was asked, because students were arguing about participation. So here it is 10 teams.
Writing the prefecture number on the white board is a good idea. 10 teams seems like a lot of clicking to me but I guess you gotta do what your teaching partner wants.
It is so much clicking, but it can be done with some team work. The writing the number also creates some fun conflict because students sometimes choose the same prefecture and have to battle it out. (rock-paper-siccors)
