SAMURAI WISDOM
It’s feudal Japan. You are a part of a local clan led by a
daimyo.
Play rock, paper, scissors to decide who is the daimyo – the
daimyo names the clan
Play rock, paper, scissors to find two samurai
The rest of you are peasants.
It’s 1600. The daimyo wants all in his clan learn to live by
samurai wisdom. He leads the clan in trying to be the first to
read excerpts from the Hagakure and determine the main
idea.
CLAN VIE FOR POWER
Daimyo – lead your group in reading and interpreting. Have
one member write the main idea and he/she has to get
permission from you to have it checked by the shogun, your
teacher.
Once the main idea has been approved, all members write it
and continue the process until you’ve interpreted all the
wisdom.
The first clan to correctly interpret all the main ideas can
challenge the shogun for power. If he/she beats the shogun
in rock/paper/scissor, he gets to be the shogun and make
one class law.
