Here's a weblink to the United States Dates binder:
http://www.pcicatalog.com/STORE/Detail/PCI1837.aspx
I'm still waiting for it to come in, but there are some samples on the
page that made me think it would be perfect for my group. I have a very
mixed group this year, with a bunch of students from the county to our
west. Virginia is still a "categorical" state, which means students are
placed by their disability type, and I haven't quite figured out what
exactly that other county is/was doing.
I like the idea of making up stories: that was why I wanted to teach
them Nanofictionary, because my guys are fantastic story-tellers. I am
hoping to give them some better outlets for their fantasies... right
now I have one student who tells stories about being allergic to
peanuts, another that tells stories about my cat driving a car and being
friends with the Geico gecko, and another that tells stories about
random seniors beating him up and stripping his Redskins jersey off his
body in the hallway. :snicker:

Magi,
Do you have more info on the binder from PCI?
The Chrononauts isn't as complicated as it looks when reading the
instructions. Though still too complicated for Ki. (Ki is 10, the
other are 11.5 and 13).
I like the timeline idea. I think I'd get a second set of cards maybe.
And I'd probably put the inverter cards from the 2nd deck into the
original deck. I think the deck seems to a ' inverter light' (the
cards that let you change a timeline event). Either that or I am too
power hungry. Or maybe they just weren't shuffled enough.
I think I'll give Ki the title "Keeper of the Time Space Continuum"
and do some timeline stuff that you suggested. And because he likes
keeping score, I think I'll make a score board where he records how
many pathces and how many paradoxes his brothers make happen and
reward a couple points for each. He'd like that. And I will let him
narrate for my turn. He loves making up stories. Until someone comes
up with better ideas for me......
THANKS
