Middle School Advisory with Ms Woolman
<--Stuffing the prize winning scarecrow Building a shelter "silently" --> |
The object of the shelter activity was to provide an opportunity for students to work together in solving a group problem. Using only newspapers and masking tape, groups of 5 to 7 students had to build a shelter in which they all could fit. No other supports such as chairs or walls were used but students could take the newspaper to the floor. ...Mr. Woolman | |
During the
building period students could touch the material but not
talk. During the planning period, students could talk but
not touch the materials. Total planning and building time
was 20 minutes, and I didn't think the groups could
complete the task, but all of them succeeded because of
TEAMWORK. ...MS. WOOLMAN |

In this
picture we are making our scarecrow. It was fun, but it
took a lot of hard work. It ended up that the judges
liked our scarecrow and we won! ..Lindsay (Left to Right: Lindsay, Dylan and Jennica) |
