What about this project went well for your group? the building, failing and then building again and succeeding.

What would you change if you did the project again? maby doing the Rube Goldberg flat and not standing up.

well I was not here for the second time but the first time was super hard because it felt impossible. the place where you had to drop the ball kept breaking.

Title: Cereal Box Challenge

Category: ETC

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… making sure that every voice is heard

My Individual Plan tape and fold the paper into a box-like shape and then draw on the paper carefully so it doesn’t rip.

Why I think my plan will be successful: because whenever I had to make a box out of paper and tape that Idea always came to my head first.

Our Group’s Plan tape and fold the paper into a box-like shape and then draw on the paper carefully so it doesn’t rip.

We chose this plan because… it was the most simple and easy

Possible challenges that may come up during construction…paper ripping when trying to draw on it.

Each team member will be responsible for… levi-documenting the words Matan-making the box sean-drawing the logo

After the Build

Our design worked well because…it did not rip when we tried to tape it

This activity was challenging because…the paper kept falling down

This activity was comfortable because….it was easy for me and my group

I met my teamwork participation goal by… letting each Idea have a part in our final project

A strength of my team was….to not boss my teammates 

An area of growth for my team is… to spend more time on the challenge instead of talking

For our next challenge, my new teamwork participation goal for myself is…. to not boss my teammates
