Activity 9. Check out some of these games and websites about different cultures of the world.

While looking at some of the different games and websites, I found that Geography Games For  Kids was one I enjoyed.  I am not very strong in geography but I felt these games could help me become stronger. I like that not only was it U.S geography but it was global. If you’re looking for some good geography games I feel this is one site I would recommend.

Another game site I looked at was Games For Change. At first I was very confused what this site was about. What were the games for? I believe the link took you to the homepage of the site but I wasn’t even sure.  I tried to figure out what to do but was just stumped. I feel this wasn’t a strong website to help me learn. Maybe they can make it a little clearer by putting in a help page. I kept exploring the website and found there were some good games. It wasn’t easy to figure that out though. I started looking at the games and found, when you brought your mouse over the games, descriptions appeared. They were clear descriptions explaining the games. Then when you clicked “More game details” it brought you to where you could play the game. Overall the games were good but the website was confusing.

One more site I explored was Culture Quest. Culture Quest was a website that taught you about different parts of the world. One part of the world I looked at was Africa. I took a trip to Africa last summer. I found that on this website I learned more about Africa than I already knew. I now know the different flags, holidays, recipes, and games from Africa. Now the games were not online games, but were games you play with other people in person. I found that very good because most times when you find games on a website they are online games. I found it great that just from one site you could learn so much more. I will definitely visit Culture Quest again.
