Flagpole team challenge

We were learning how to use a Habit of mind; Working with others. There was a little difficulty as some got on well and others needed mediation. Working in groups is not as easy as one thinks. In the end everyone finished the challenge happy and we all learned that we can resolve our issues through communication and compromise. 

Each group was given eight sheets of paper, a pair of scissors and a roll of cellotape. The only instruction we received were to get into groups and create a flagpole that would stand un-assisted. The eventual winners were Salena, Compton, Tamehana, Ngahina and Carlos. Their flagpole was the only one that stood. Awesome job guys!

  1. High Mighty Monsters,

    It looks like you had fun doing the flagpole challenge. It looks quite difficult.
