It's a neat game...but...the idea is to learn something from the game....especially about MITIGATING ACTIONS you can take to reduce the impact and save lives. This will be one of the things we will be asking you to do in written form at the end of the unit, so it's nice to practice now.

Electrocity- This is a cool game too that will focus on our second geography unit about sustainability and planning. I also have a code to this game, meaning, after you finish, you can enter the code and I can see what your city looked like and how you did. It's actually a fairly cool game...but it is difficult as you have to keep your eyes on so many things and you have to make critical decisions on turns 50-100.
