Drawing inspiration from educational tools such as social stories, journal reflections, and positive behavior interventions, GOOD NATURE is a cooperative storytelling game that uses simple dice-matching mechanics and basic journaling to encourage collaboration and creative problem-solving. It is easily adaptable to any audience and genre, but designed for use with students in a classroom setting.
Gameplay is structured around scenarios consisting of “Situations” -- prompts that are resolved through cooperative dice-rolling and storytelling. Player interactions use the 3-L system— Lead , Learn , and Lift-Up —for supporting one another and determining how many dice to roll.
GOOD NATURE: The Complete Facilitator’s Guide includes:
- Rules: Everything you need to know to play a scenario, including how to create a character, mechanics to resolve situations, and how to use the Player Journal to create narratives.
- Facilitator’s Guide: The core of the book provides guidance on how to use the game in small group or whole class settings, establish norms, build a scenario using Common Core Standards, and sample grading rubrics.
- Situation Prompts for school-based social situations and academic subjects, as well as guidance on how to create your own prompts for each content area.
- Handouts: Master sheets for journals, gameplay awards, badges, and tokens that can be used in game or as classroom rewards.
- The Community Carnival: A complete, ready-to-play scenario.
