Christmas Treasure: Teacher Notes

Additional materials needed World Vision Gift Catalog (optional; you can just use the included price list if you do not
have/want to wait for the catalog) order the free catalog at www.worlvision.org/giftcatalog, scrolling down until you see order a catalog in the left sidebar. treasure the flat marbles you can buy at Dollar Tree or in the floral section of Wal-Mart work well, or anything similar you may have. You need about 60 pieces of treasure. Game board markers - buttons work well, or anything else that fits in the hearts. 1 standard die

Disclosure: World Vision is a Christian organization. I have not included any items overtly Christian in nature (Bibles), but you will find some references to Christianity in the catalog if you use it. You can look at the online version to see if it will be appropriate for your class. You can also just use the included price list. The game itself does not reference Christianity, so that it may be used by a broad and diverse group of students.

CHRISTMAS TREASURE
The World Vision Gift Catalog or Price List Treasure Cards, shuffled and placed in a stack, face down Fact Cards, shuffled and placed in a stack, face down. Scratch paper or white board/marker

One button (or place marker) per person One die Jewels or jewel cards Solution Page

To play:
1. 2. 3. 4.

5.

6.

The player with the longest hair begins. If you cant decide, the youngest player starts. Place your button (or other marker) on the heart that says start. Roll the die and advance that number of spaces, moving in a clockwise direction. If you land on a white/green heart, pick up the top Fact card, and read it out loud. Collect one jewel, and your turn ends. If you land on a gray/red heart, pick up the top Treasure Card. Use the World Vision catalog or Price list to find the prices you need, and solve the problem. Use scratch paper or a white board to help you. Record your answer on the recording page (if required). Another player checks your answer using the solution page. There is a small capital letter in the bottom left corner of the Treasure card; the other player finds that letter on the solution page to see if you have the correct answer. If it is correct, collect 2 jewels. If it is incorrect, but you gave your best effort to solve it, collect 1 jewel. You do NOT have to go back any spaces. Continue playing until one player goes around the board once, or until you run out of time. Add up the number of jewels collected by all players together to see how much Christmas Treasure you earned!

A family can eat eggs from its hen, and sell the extra eggs, earning money fir clothing, medicine, and other necessities.
A healthy pig can give birth to 20 piglets in one year; a family can eat them or sell them to earn money for other things they need like clothes, medicine, and school.
Fact Cards 1

The milk from a goat, sheep, or cow provides calcium, protein and other essential vitamins.

A family can drink their goats milk, sell its offspring, and sell the cheese and yogurt made from the milk.

A family can use the fertilizer made from its goats poop in their garden, giving them more and better vegetables.

A milk cow can provide more than 5,000 gallons of milk in its life; thats 350,000 glasses of milk!

When family receives an animal from World Vision, they also receive vaccinations and food for the animal, plus training in how to best care for it.

With a pair of oxen and a plow, a farmer can produce 5 times as much food as before. This allows the farmers children to go to school instead of work in the fields..

For families in places like Bangladesh where they often lose their chickens due to flooding, its better to receive ducks; the ducks can swim!

A pair of rabbits can produce 50 baby rabbits in just one year. A family can eat them and sell them!

There are many children who cannot attend school, because they do not have money to buy required uniforms or supplies.

1.7 million adults died in 2009 due to AIDS; many left behind children who need someone to care for them. 230,000 children also died from AIDS in 2009.
Many children study in schools that have few books and other resources, or that are falling down. Others do not even have a school building.
Fact Cards 2

Many children in the world do not have the opportunity to study art nor music. Giving them this opportunity can lift their spirits and change their lives.

Many, many children love soccer, but have to make their own soccer balls out of leaves or other materials.

Millions of children die each year because they could not get the vaccinations that would protect them from preventable diseases.

World Vision is working to save the lives of children affected by hunger; they have discovered that sweet potatoes and peanut therapy can help them survive.

Teaching a woman to bake bread, sew, or make jewelry, and how to have a business, helps her provide for her family.

In some countries, many babies die within the first few weeks of life. Giving a kit with items to care for the baby, and teaching new mothers how to care for it, helps babies live.

Giving a loan to a woman can allow her to form her own business, and this allows her to provide for her children without extra help.
Giving honeybees to a family and teaching them to care for them helps them have better harvests (due to pollination), and they can use and sell the honey and wax.

There is much poverty in Mongolia, and many families live in huts in a land where temperatures often reach 50F below zero. Giving them a ger allows them to stay warm.

Lack of clean water causes diarrhea, cholera, typhoid fever, and other illnesses caused by bacteria, worms, and parasites in unclean water. Digging a well provides people with clean water to drink. Fact Cards 3

There are seeds that produce plants which resist drought, grow more quickly, and produce more; giving these seeds to a family provides them with sufficient nutricious food to eat and sell.
