I CHOOSE YOU, PIKACHU!

In trading card games, sometimes it is hard to find your favorite cards because of differing rarity values.

Rarity values are a form of scarcity, the economic concept that says you can’t have everything that

you want.

I CHOOSE YOU, PIKACHU!

Rarity is designed by the creators of the game to make certain cards more valuable.

In today’s vocabulary game, I have made certain definitions more rare to make them harder to find.

I CHOOSE YOU, PIKACHU!

Look for the note & suits symbols (♪ ♠ ♥ ♣ ♦) on the cards.

The more symbols a card has, the more common it is.

The fewer symbols it has, the rarer it is.

1. Copy the definitions from your cards to your paper. Do not copy from other students’ papers.

2. After you copy the definition, you may trade your card with the teacher or another student in the trading area.

3. If you trade all your cards with your teacher, you will get random cards back based on the best rarity you traded (see #s above).

4. If you trade with a student, you may trade the cards one for one. You may talk to each other in the trading area only.
