Cooperative Activities

On Fridays, Team 3's classes come together and get into our mixed cooperative groups.  Mrs Wiedel, Mrs Hooker and Miss Ish give us a task to work on and complete as a group.   

This involves us learning to take roles within a group, showing our STAR attributes of;
  • Sporting - encouraging others in my group to persevere
  • Trustworthy - to be doing the right thing and staying on task 
  • Accepting - listening to others ideas
  • Responsible - working as part of the group, offering ideas

Some of our activities have included;
  • building a 6X6X6 boat out of tinfoil and 5 straws that would float and hold the most marbles without sinking.
  • building a catapult out of pencils and rubber bands,
  • building a bridge out of paper that could hold at least 3 matchbox cars ,
  • making the tallest structure we could  using only marsh-mellows and spaghetti pasta.

Here are a few photos us working on our tasks.
