A description of the game as a school work

Game descriptions are often required as an alternative to instructions for use, person descriptions or handicraft instructions in German lessons in fifth and sixth grade.

What elements should the homework contain

A game description is a factually informative text. The following points are important for school work:

• The instructions should be based on a good structure that allows the reader a quick orientation.
• use Technical termsthat are important to the game, but not without first explaining them.
• Use a simple sentence structure with as few subordinate clauses as possible.

Build up a game description in a meaningful way

Start the game description with a brief description of the game, for example: "Rummy is a card game for two to six players. The aim of the game is to lay out and lay out your cards as quickly as possible. "

1. Now describe the required game material, for example: "Rummy is played with two decks of 52 cards, each with three jokers."
2. Next, write something about setting up the game, for example: "Each player is dealt ten cards. The rest of the cards go face down in a pile in the middle of the table, the talon. "
3. Now describe the course of the game, for example: "The player sitting to the left of the dealer draws a card from the talon and does not place one required card face up next to the talon. "Make sure that the game description is as detailed as possible and yet as short as possible compose. Leave out any information that is unnecessary for the history.
4. Now describe the end phase of the game, for example, "The winner is whoever has discarded all his cards first and ends the game with a last card discard on the talon."

It can also be useful to roughly outline the game strategy. Add such clues to promising moves at the end of the homework.
