Become a High Priest and Win!1. You live c. 2800 – 1800 BCE in

Early Bronze Age Britain and are a member of the Beaker Folk (pre-Celts)

2. You are what we would call a vate (a pre-Celtic bard); sort of a storyteller/ shaman

3. You want to become high priest/ high “druid”

4. You are hoping the other vates will elect you as high priest so you can build Stonehenge!

Step 1: Make your cards• Fold a piece of paper

into eight equal sections

• Tear or cut the sections to make eight equally sized cards

Step 2: Answer cards• On each of these

cards you will put a single answer to the question posed

• The answer should either be believable or outlandishly funny!

Make sure to keep your answer secret! Do not share with anyone!

Step 3: Sell it!• Read the question

posed by your instructor

• Create an answer to attract the most votes

• Players then put the cards down and shuffle them

Step 4: Voting• Each person takes a

random card and reads the answer aloud, then places the card on the table

• Each person then votes by placing a token on the answer

• The most tokens wins!

Vote for what you LIKE, not necessarily what is right or wrong!

Step 5: Bonus Round• The two players with the most points go

into bonus, lightning round! • These two players answer the following

question: Why should we use human sacrifice for them? They should do this in secret and write their answers down.

• The other players vote for the best answer. If you can convince them (get them to vote for your answers) then you will become the High “Druid”.

1. High Priest, it is now your job to delegate roles to your people

2. You need to build Stonehenge…

3. How? What will you do? Why is your way the best way?
