Class activities for Friday, September 5
We finished our week with more team building activities
Today was Team Day! Students had to work together to move, untie knots, drop hula hoops, and stand on a shrinking sheet! The class solved the challenges much quicker than last year!
Later, we played People Bingo to learn more about each other.
We made a class agreement, deciding on these things that everyone should do each day:
- Turn and look at the speaker.
- Follow directions nicely.
- Be kind.
- Talk at the right time.
- Be a STAR (stop, think, act, review).
We decided on our class rule: Follow the High Fives.
We ended with a final teamwork challenge, called Teamwork Towers. Each group received 50 straws and 5 feet of tape. The challenge was to build the tallest free-standing tower that couldn’t be blown over. Congratulations to Team 5 for the tallest tower, measuring 86 cm.
