Group+Project

=
You and your friends have become tired of living in the city and have decided to move to the mountains to be alone. Before you leave, your group must purchase supplies and research the area in order to be prepared. You can only take the clothes on your back with you from home. Otherwise, you will begin with $200.00 to spend. Along the way you will face challenges that will test your ability to solve problems and use the information that you have gathered. Prepare carefully and have fun!======

The Process You'll be assigned to a team of four students. Each student will choose the expert they will be (Land and Weather Expert, Plant Expert, Animal Expert, Supply Expert) and they will research their area. Once your research is complete your group will compile the information into a survival guide to use on your journey. Along the way your group will encounter problems and will have to solve them based on what you have learned. The solutions will be posted on your page, I will then send you on your way to another dilemma. :)

The Task and Resources Your first task will be putting together a survival guide that will be your group's only resource as you try to survive the mountains. Build your group survival guide to include detailed information on the terrain, the normal weather conditions for this time of year, the plants that you can eat, the animals that you may encounter, and the equipment that will be needed to survive.

You will need to organize the information so that it is easy to read and understand.

Your second task will be to solve problems along the way using your survival guide and anything else you have learned while researching. You will post your solutions on your Group Page before the next problem will be revealed.
