We started this week by going to LCC to brainstorm with the students about the hero-stories they had created. These hero stories were fascinating – one was a magical seal that saved the ocean, another a farmer who sought to change his ways. Time spend around the table, moving seats every few minutes, were inspirational. Many of these hero journeys had the potential to turn into larger experiences, and this was our next step. Bolor and I gave our ‘Giving Tree and Plastic Soup’ game proposition and presentation to the LCC students, and the brainstorming began: get a group and turn your story into a game. Many students became excited to collaborate with each other and sticky-notes with game titles began to quickly appear. One group came up with the idea of a family-feud style game that would be about our planet earth, trash, and the themes of Earth Day. It would be called, “Trash Trivia.” Bolor and I were immediately drawn to this idea. When the voting on these ideas chose a few games, Trash Trivia was a part of the mix. We joined the group with high hopes.
