SimCity 3000™ can be used in the classroom to enhance just about any instructional unit. It can stand alone as an enrichment computer activity, or it can be used as a pivotal activity connected to other activities and projects done before, during, or after using the computer program. Use the lessons in this guide to integrate SimCity 3000 into your curriculum, with minimal preparation, or to create custom lessons to suit your needs.

The activities in this guide give a sample of the activities and subjects that can be addressed using SimCity 3000. You can adapt the simulations and activities in this guide for use in grades 6-12 and beyond. We hope that these activities will prepare students to formulate plans, take action, and resolve problems.
