This is cool stuff Magi! Please do write it up when you have a moment - believe me, we all do understand how little time a teacher has. Do you need any blank cards? I know that Kristin has a deal in place for teachers (a 30% discount, I believe... correct me if I'm wrong Kristin - which may not happen for a few days, as Kristin and others are at another con this weekend). Aside from that, I do know that Kristin has a TON of Nanofictionary Blanxx and if you (or anyone actually on this list!) would like some in your classroom, you basically just have to ask! See what you can do w/ a bunch of Blanxx - and then let the list know how it went! thanks for being such a great teacher Magi! You rock! Carol On 4/28/06, Magi D.

Okay... I think I might wait until this summer though. When we were having that discussion about different types of Fluxx, I thought about having my kids make cards. Then, I thought about a themed variety of Fluxx... and then I realized that I'm going to have one of my students for Extended School year for 90 minutes 3 days a week... and that this is the kind of project he'd really get into (I hope!). He likes the game, and we should have access to the computers and printers over the summer. I can always print at home if not. I'm thinking about 'Transition Fluxx' or 'CBI Fluxx'... since all my kids need to work on those job & community skills. We already have (as I mentioned a few weeks ago) 'CBI Trivial Pursuit'.
