Magic Dust: Create Your Own Community

Estimated Time: 1 hour

The animals have the freedom to create any community that they want. Today, you can create a community of your own. For this project, you will need:

  • Paper
  • Pencils, Markers
  • Posterboard or Dry Erase Board

Directions:

You have been given the opportunity to run your community in any way you see fit. Of course, you must still maintain order and keep the high levels of achievement and production intact. As you plan your community, consider the following:

  • The more residents your community has, the more workers and resources you will have. How will you convince people to stay in your community?
  • How will you recruit more people to join you?
  • Where will people live?
  • How will you maintain order?
  • Will you control how people think? If so, how?
  • How can your community raise extra money?
  • Since you have the hard job of running the community, what benefits will you have that others will not?
  • Your community should have a flag to represent it. What will it look like?
  • What are some institutions in your current community to be done away with? What will replace these institutions?
  • What new buildings will you add to the community? Why?
  • How will you pay for new infrastructure? You won't be receiving money from the government or your family.
  • What rules will your community have?
  • What will you do with community members who do not follow the rules?

Now that you've considered all these items, create your community rules and your plan. Write it out and create a large poster or board sharing the rules and your vision. Share it with us below.
