Cereal Box Challenge

Today’s Challenge: Create a new kind of cereal and its box. Using a piece of poster board, you and your team need to create your own box, with the goal of having the largest possible volume.

 

Teamwork Rubric Focus (Participation):

 

My goal for participation today within my team is to be kind and listen to everyone.

 

My Individual Plan <insert photo of sketch and/or type out the plan>

Why I think my plan will be successful:

I think it will work because it will stay and will be big hopefully.

Our Group’s Plan <insert photo or sketch and/or type out a plan>

We are going to make something like a Sendiks paper bag because it will be simple and hopefully work.

We chose this plan because it is sturdy and big and that’s what we’re going for.

 

Possible challenges that may come up during construction not having enough time and tape.

 

Each team member will be responsible for cutting tape, folding, and everyone will be drawing.

 

After the Build

Our design worked well because it held its shape and it was easy to draw on.

 

This activity was challenging because some of the tape wasn’t sticking to the poster board.

 

This activity was comfortable because our design didn’t take super long so we got to start to decorate super fast. 

 

I met my teamwork participation goal by listening to others ideas when we were brainstorming and during the prosses as well. I also met my other goal by doing my other goal.

 

A strength of my team was communicating with each other.

 

An area of growth for my team is decision making.

 

For our next challenge, my new teamwork participation goal for myself is still listening.

 

Index Card Challenge

Today’s Challenge: Using only an index card and scissors find a way to cut your index card so you can fit your entire body through it.

 

Teamwork Rubric Focus (Organization/Planning):

 

My goal for organization/planning today within my team is to keep the stuff that goes in one thing they go in a pile.

 

My Individual Plan <insert photo of sketch and/or type out a plan>

Why I think my plan will be successful: it will hopefully keep a good hold so someone can get through it.

 

Our Group’s Plan <insert photo or sketch and/or type out a plan>

 

We chose this plan because it is the simplest so if we mess up we will have enough time to redo it.

 

Possible challenges that may come up during construction is it not working.

 

Each team member will be responsible for cutting slits, constructing and testing.

 

After the Build

Our design worked well because it got 95% up their body.

 

This activity was challenging because it broke when they moved their hands o it would work better but it backfired and it fell apart. 

 

This activity was comfortable because of some of my group members they made it more comfortable.

 

I met my teamwork organization/planning goal by we kept the stuff that went together in one spot.

 

A strength of my team was deciding on an idea.

 

An area of growth for my team is getting everyone to participate.

 

For our next challenge, my new teamwork organization/planning goal for myself is to keep everything organized and have a hard plan.

.במקום שאין איש תשתדל להיות איש

This means in a place there are no men be a man or women.

It relates to the partsha because no one would help eliazer but rebbeca would so it connects because rebbeca was being the only women when no one else would.

Newspaper Shoe Challenge

Today’s Challenge: Using only newspaper, 24 inches of tape, and one scissors, you and your partner need to create one shoe that fits either you or your partner’s foot. The shoe must be able to come on and off without falling apart.

 

Teamwork Rubric Focus:

My goal for communication today within my team is to not take over and stand back a little but still to participate in the challenge.

 

My Individual Plan <insert photo of sketch and/or type out a plan>

My plan is to make a Birkenstock it is a shoe that has a base and has two straps over the top to secure the feet inside the shoe so you can walk maybe not run but can still function in them.

Why I think my plan will be successful: I think my plan will be successful because it will hold the foot and you will be able to slide the foot in and out with no worry. 

 

Our Group’s Plan <insert photo or sketch and/or type out a plan>

Our plan is to make a slide shoe and we are using the biggest foot and it will be more simple than a normal shoe.

We chose this plan because it was the simplest to make and it worked it stayed together and we could walk in it.

 

Possible challenges that may come up during construction running out of tape or time.

 

Each partner will be responsible for different jobs the jobs were taping, tracing, and wearing. My jobs were taping and wearing.

 

After the Build

<insert photo of completed shoe>

Our design worked well because it stayed on our foot and we could walk in it.

 

This activity was challenging because getting the tracing right the first or second time so we had more time to tape, size, and test.

 

This activity was comfortable because the shoe we made was pretty comfortable to make, test with, and easy to fix if the tape unstuck. 

 

I met my teamwork communication goal by letting my groupmates talk.

 

A strength of my partnership was that we worked fast but not fast enough to have to much time left if we wanted to make another shoe.

 

An area of growth for my partnership is not rushing if we know we still have plenty of time left.

 

For our next challenge, my new teamwork communication goal for myself is listening.
