D103 = Inquiry: Living in a new country in the world with NEW PASSPORTS...
= pptnewme is due Monday! Power point presentations may happen if there is time.
...
OUR FAKE Situation: The world has just learned of a new super-bug that is ten times more potent than the avian
influenza H5N1 pandemic. Not much is known about this virus at this time.
All of us in this room have just found out
that, miraculously, we are the only people on the planet that have not been
affected by the new D103 Pandemic. All of us are originally from different
countries, (as seen on our passports) but we were trying to become Canadian Citizens,
living in Cranbrook.
Luckily, there is a secure shelter in this
building that will be able to support us for the next 3 years.
Goal: Our goal is to survive and repopulate the planet. You must be
prepared to state your strengths so that you are a valuable member of this new society. Inform others of all
your skills you have to offer that may prove helpful.
Preparation:
a)
You must research your own job
and be able to state which skills you have and those that would be needed in
the shelter (and later when you exit the shelter).
b)
You must dress the part of your
character and change your voice like your character as you imagine it to sound.
c) Also, research some facts
about your country and get to know its culture.
Good
Luck To You! Help the world agree with each other and SURVIVE!
