Zombie Apocalypse in New York Highly engaging, zombie apocalypse lesson, guaranteed to motive. The scenario: It starts out as a cool trip to New York City with friends - the vibe, the jazz scene and the shopping, but then it happens… The clouds darken and an eerie silence descends. Something is brewing in the air. Something abnormal. Streaks in the sky follow an unnerving thunderstorm and you pass the night restlessly. In the morning you awake to find everything has changed. The city is surrounded by the walking dead and seemingly there is no way out. If there is a slim chance it lies in fighting your way out of the hotel in search of a lone motorcycle. Weaving your way out of the city seems the only way forward. But this is a slim chance. Can you make it against the odds? Highly attractive Power Point includes: * Full lesson scenario * Starter task * Survival objectives * Planning sheet * Writing and discussion prompts * Interactive ‘zombie bingo’ with callers card and 30 individual bingo cards (from myfreebingo.com) Fantastic lesson!!
