Rube Reflection

What about this project went well for you? what went well for me was being able to respond to other people in my group’s actions. And not getting mad at my group members.

 

What about this project went well for your group? What went well for our groups was being able to all be happy and not have someone be mad at each other and we were all friends. When we were getting wood I didn’t fight during it and everyone got what they thought they needed.

 

What would you change if you did the project again? I would like to make it with more simple machines and I would like to actually make the dreidel spin.

Golf Ball Challenge

How did going through the same challenge twice change your planning? It really didn’t help too much.
How did the chance to try again make you feel? No real emotion because no one listened to me.
How did the chance to try again help your team? Hurt your team? It hurt because our group wouldn’t share.
What have you learned about yourself as a team member? That I should speak up so I am heard.
Would you like to try past challenges again? Yes because now we know what to do.

GROWTH

I have seen growth in myself by, letting everybody voices being heard for example the umbrella challenge everybody had awesome ideas but some people even me shut them out but I realized that if their voice get heard that idea might work.

ZIPLINING!!!

What did you think about team building activities? They helped me get to know more people.
How did your mindset change throughout the day? Bored to happy to about to blow up happy.
How did you feel as others cheered you on?  Made me feel like I can do anything.
How did you feel before Zip lining? After? happy still happy.
What was fun? Exciting? Ziplining
What was frustrating? Challenging?ABOUSLTLY NOTHING
Was it what you expected? Yes- why? No- what was different? Yes better then I expected.
Would you do it again? Why? Yes, any day anytime.
How can this experience connect to school? Friendship? Any relationship? Helping classmates feel better saying “You can do it and good job” this made me feel good.
