Objective

By the end of this lesson, you will have learned about English, History, Math, Physical Education, and Science concepts through the lens of Fortnite.

Materials and Prep

• Computer or gaming console with access to Fortnite
• Paper and pen for note-taking
• Basic understanding of Fortnite gameplay

Activities

• English: Write a short story where a Fortnite character goes on an adventure.
• History: Research the history of video games and compare it to the history of Fortnite.
• Math: Calculate the probability of winning a Fortnite match based on the number of players and your skill level.
• Physical Education: Create a workout routine inspired by Fortnite movements (jumping, crouching, running).
• Science: Explore the physics behind building structures in Fortnite and how they affect gameplay.

Talking Points

• English: "Let's use our imagination and create a story where our favorite Fortnite character embarks on an exciting journey."
• History: "Did you know that video games have a rich history that dates back several decades? Let's compare that to the relatively short history of Fortnite."
• Math: "Math can help us understand the probability of winning in Fortnite. Let's crunch some numbers and see what it takes to be victorious!"
• Physical Education: "Physical activity is important even when gaming. Let's create a workout routine that mimics the movements we make in Fortnite."
• Science: "Building structures in Fortnite involves physics principles. Let's explore how these structures impact the game and our gameplay strategies."
