Today, you will work on your game to get it ready for game play.
I will pass out the rest of your supplies.
You will need to type up your rules on one Google Doc. Make it pretty! Add images if you like. Then we will print them on cardstock.
If you need "money" for your game, Google Search it and create it on a Doc and we will print it.
Any Docs or images you need for your game need to be turned in to Ms. Rickard here.
