The Oregon Trail, ♥
Gaming could potentially connect with learning because the game I played teaches you about history in 1848. It connects with learning because it allows you to be a person going on a trail and you get to choose supplies to bring with you. You learn that during the trip people eventually get sick, and die. Also, you learn that your oxen gets hurt, and you need to buy more supplies. You go through rivers, and have a choice to wait or just go. Basically you have choices for every move you make. This teaches you back in 1848 how they got to places. This game does connect with learning a lot, and it was actually very fun to play and it seemed like i was really on the trail.
