Mrs. Voss's Students Take the Pyramid Challenge


Students were asked to build  the tallest tower they could in eight minutes. Each group was given Dixie cups and index cards. We discussed working together, communicating and positively speaking/ encouraging to each other. If the tower falls they needed to plan again and rebuild. The team with the tallest tower after 8 minutes wins. Students completed a T-Chart following the activity identifying things the experienced and observed and how the activity would help the classroom environment.
