MrBarry628 Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST

A2: Using Risk would be cool too thinking about "WHY" nation's want certain land, resources, & control over other nations/economies #sstlap

Braz74 - Moderator Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST

@CherylJindeel i asked business ed teacher and others if they had sets I could borrow #sstlap

amcrowe5 Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST

A2 Risk definitely more along the lines for WH, lots of games/scenarios to show complexity of alliances, esp around WWII #sstlap

Braz74 - Moderator Jan 28 @ 9:19 PM EST

@sandyrotto @rosy_burke @kiddielitprof hey great to see you again!! #sstlap how are things in MN?

Chucktaft Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST

A2 #sstlap my son plays Risk in 5th grade recess - young global domination - a lot of strategy - best result is learning to lose

kiddielitprof Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST

A2: I have not played Risk so lurking on this one. 😏 #sstlap

Mr_B_Teacher Jan 28 @ 9:20 PM EST

A2 We played Survivor last year. Also have seen it called Grudgeball. Students made alliances and had to risk who to steal pts from #sstlap
