Rodger recommends using Nature Fluxx to introduce students to ecology. It can give you an idea as to what students may already understand about the environment. The game plays quickly and will introduce them to ideas and vocabulary they will encounter during your study of ecology! |
How to Play
It all begins with one basic rule: Draw one card, play one card. You start with a hand of three cards, add the card you drew to your hand, and then choose one card to play, following the directions written on your chosen card. As cards are drawn and played from the deck, the rules of the game change from how many cards are drawn, played, or even how many cards you can hold at the end of your turn.
