00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,200
Today we are going to be starting a new project in which you are going to create your own world.

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:12,640
So I want you to start by finding the coordinates of your world. Remember it can be located

3
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:18,780
anywhere. So play around on Google Earth and figure out the coordinates of where exactly

4
00:00:18,780 --> 00:00:27,640
your world is located. Then the next thing I want you to do is think about what type of world you

5
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:34,920
want. It can be underwater. It can be tiny. It can be like in an ant mound. We had some students

6
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:41,979
last year who created a world within a drop of honey. So be creative. There are no limits of

7
00:00:41,979 --> 00:00:53,079
what type of world you can create. You can have a world on an iceberg, a purple world, whatever you

8
00:00:53,079 --> 00:01:03,240
want to do okay so now we have to think about how this world was created how did it how was it

9
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:09,980
created um so you have to think about the settlement the colonization um the end of the

10
00:01:09,980 --> 00:01:16,540
world into a new world so think about our world there used to be dinosaurs and then a meteor hit

11
00:01:16,540 --> 00:01:23,200
and killed all the dinosaurs and then that started kind of a new type of world with

12
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:30,299
new settlement and colonization where humans were kind of the leaders instead of the dinosaurs

13
00:01:30,299 --> 00:01:38,239
so think again of this how is your world created um did it come out of an old world how was the

14
00:01:38,239 --> 00:01:51,480
old world destroyed um and there are a lot of different examples in hollywood that you can look

15
00:01:51,480 --> 00:02:02,819
at. A new world order, don't look up WALL-E. WALL-E is a great example because it's the whole

16
00:02:02,819 --> 00:02:11,060
end of the old world into a new world in the plane. Okay, a big important thing of your world

17
00:02:11,060 --> 00:02:19,120
is the social organization. You have to think about how your world is governed. Who will be

18
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:26,280
your leaders? How many leaders will you have? Who establishes the laws? What kind of government do

19
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:31,259
you have. There's so many different types of governments, and you can create your own type

20
00:02:31,259 --> 00:02:38,599
of government. I know some students are creating a type of government based on morality and a

21
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:44,520
hierarchy, so you can be as creative as you want, but there are many different types of government.

22
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:53,479
Here are the traditional ones you can definitely use, or again, create your own. We had some

23
00:02:53,479 --> 00:03:01,219
students last year who made Selena Gomez the queen and Dwayne the Rock Johnson the king so

24
00:03:01,219 --> 00:03:14,300
you can even use celebrities again more types of government you can do it in a hierarchy another

25
00:03:14,300 --> 00:03:21,060
example is with Hunger Games with the different districts are in different hierarchies based on

26
00:03:21,060 --> 00:03:35,870
what type of work you do and some more examples are Maze Runner and Divergent all different

27
00:03:35,870 --> 00:03:44,870
forms of government. Okay, so after you create your type of world in the social organization,

28
00:03:44,889 --> 00:03:50,569
you have to think about the ecosystem. You have to have the abiotic and the biotic

29
00:03:50,569 --> 00:03:59,289
factors in your world. So the abiotic is what kind of physical objects do you have in your world?

30
00:03:59,289 --> 00:04:05,750
Is your world snowy? Does it have lots of mountains? Does it have rivers? Does it have

31
00:04:05,750 --> 00:04:16,290
new types of abiotic features like i don't know giant mushrooms or biotic relates to about life

32
00:04:16,290 --> 00:04:25,509
on earth so flora and fauna so um be creative you can create new forms of biotic factors in your

33
00:04:25,509 --> 00:04:39,360
world different types of animals is there a national animal what types of food do the

34
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:44,399
citizens eat are the citizens in your world human they don't have to be human

35
00:04:44,399 --> 00:04:53,160
so yeah definitely things to take into account how do they maintain life on the earth you need

36
00:04:53,160 --> 00:05:00,579
sustenance in order to maintain life so that's where fauna and flora comes in does your world

37
00:05:00,579 --> 00:05:11,910
have environmental issues like our world and there's all different kinds of fauna and you can

38
00:05:11,910 --> 00:05:18,850
even do hybrid animals like you could do a monkey cat is on your world or maybe there's dinosaurs

39
00:05:18,850 --> 00:05:30,629
still on your world and you have to think about the physical geography the climate is it really

40
00:05:30,629 --> 00:05:38,370
hot is there lava is it really cold you have to think about the human geography also are there

41
00:05:38,370 --> 00:05:45,610
humans in your world if so where are they living how are there different cultures is it one culture

42
00:05:45,610 --> 00:06:02,060
and another thing to think about with human geography is do you have roads houses where

43
00:06:02,060 --> 00:06:10,839
do people live what types of structures do they create to keep themselves safe from environmental

44
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:25,529
factors okay and then also let's add some culture into your world what is the national sport you

45
00:06:25,529 --> 00:06:35,939
can choose one that already exists or you can create a new one occupations how do people or

46
00:06:35,939 --> 00:06:42,480
how do the citizens make a living in your world what are the main occupations

47
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:49,579
think about in spain what are the main occupations in spain i know tourism is a big one

48
00:06:49,579 --> 00:07:00,790
think about religion are there different religions in your world are there multiple gods

49
00:07:00,790 --> 00:07:17,790
are gods alive on your world or yeah just be creative and then finally I want you to create

50
00:07:17,790 --> 00:07:25,689
a flag that represents your world and has some sort of symbol maybe you're an animal that's in

51
00:07:25,689 --> 00:07:36,509
your world or a flower or something but something that relates to your world and then create some

52
00:07:36,509 --> 00:07:44,370
different celebrations maybe connected with the independence day of your world or different

53
00:07:44,370 --> 00:07:51,649
holidays or weird things that they do to celebrate and remember to include the date and also how

54
00:07:51,649 --> 00:08:00,819
your citizens celebrate this holiday and have fun with it that's all
