Index Card Challenge

 

Today’s Challenge: Using only an index card and a 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…

My goal for organization/planning today within my team is to make sure we have a plan before we start and make sure we throw out all the leftover scraps so there is not a big mess in the room.

 

My Individual Plan 

Maybe we could;

-Cut the middle so its like a circle

-Have teammates hold the parts that could rip so when the person goes through it doesn’t break

-Cut it in the middle and roll the edges out

Why I think my plan will be successful:

I think the plan where the teammates hold the parts that could rip might work because then maybe someone can fit in it without it ripping.

 

Our Group’s Plan 

We will cut the paper into thin strips and then cut out slits so the pieces can fit together then bwalker21 will lift me and put me through the hole.

 

We chose this plan because…

We chose this plan because we thought that this was the most successful plan and because it looked pretty easy to do.

 

Possible challenges that may come up during construction…

Challenges that may come up during construction are that the paper could rip because of the thin strips or it could not be big enough for me to go through.

 

Each team member will be responsible for…

bwalker21 will cut the strips, I will cut the slits, and ygaines21 will hold the index card so I can fit through.
