Exhilarating Reading

 

For English we were assigned a project where we got to choose a book and make an artifact about it. I chose to do a board game. For the board game we had to make a game that goes along with the book we picked. The book I picked is called From The Desk Of Zoe Washington. This book is about a girl’s journey to get on a baking show but instead the story turns out to be about the main character trying to get her dad out of jail. I chose my artifact  to be a board game because it goes well with my book as one will see throughout the book the main character goes on an adventure to prove her dad’s innocence. I chose to include Zoe making her own recipe and getting her dad out of jail as my elements.

Objective: 

Your goal is to make it around the board twice. Once every player has made it count your money, the person with the most money will be crowned the winner. The way to get money is to land on money squares or by cards you are also able to lose money so be careful. 

 

Rules:

 You will roll the dice and move that many spaces on the board, there will be squares where you may move forward or move back a few spaces. There are also cupcakes and law scales. If you land on the cupcake you take a bake sale card if you land on the law scales you take the law card. When everyone makes it around the board twice the person with the most money wins.
