High Hopes 4-H Club
Playing some of the most classic strategy games will help us learn! We'll take a look at our plans at the beginning of the game, what our opponents do to change our plans, and patterns we might see.
Some of the games we might play:
Battleship
Checkers
Chinese Checkers
Chess
Connect 4
Othello
Sequence
Tic Tac Toe
We'll watch a segment, talk about what kind of feelings it generated, learn what the artist's objectives might have been, then create art inspired by the piece.
