The following 14 people are in a nuclear bomb shelter. A nuclear attack has occurred. These 14 people are the only humans left alive on earth. It will take 2 weeks for the radiation level to subside to a safe level. Food and supplies can sustain seven people for 2 weeks. ONLY SEVEN PEOPLE CAN SURVIVE IN THIS SITUATION. Your team’s decision as to who will “survive” must be unanimous.

(Tony) Art: I would have an artist showdown, where students would have to select artworks to survive a fire in a major museum. There are 14 artworks, but they only have time to select 7.

Spanish: I would probably have a cultural approach to it. Providing students with different cultures so that, in the end, there can be some type of culture fusion as the end result.

(Andrew) History: I would be able to fit this lesson into a history unit about the Cold War. I can change the wording to make it fit a time like the 1960's and use vocabulary such as ICBM and MAD.

Team 1: (Joseph, Nicole, Alexis)

Generally for their useful skills, age, mostly homogenous in terms of religion.
Cognitively Demanding but Context Reduced (Quad 4)
