  1. i learned that as a group we can accomplish a lot if we all work together. it took a little bit but eventually we got an idea that worked! i also learned that a lot of people have a lot of ideas and we all need to take the time to listen to everyone because someone that might not be able to speak loud enough might have a really great idea that we should take into account but it seemed like for the most part we did that soo.. go us! :D

  2. I learned it really is possible for us to focus all our energy and still our frustration too, on one activity. We finally made it over!!! Everybody was psyched and we all became a little closer together as a team and a class. Pretty sweet activity H!!!

  3. I learned that maybe some classmates are more respectful than I gave them credit for at first, and the only thing keeping me from voicing my opinion is myself.

  4. I learned how much we can do if we all cooperate, and I've learned to trust my classmates more.

  5. I learned that one little thing wrong can ruin a whole thing. also if we work together sometimes things can't get acomplished but we shouldn't let that hold us back.

  6. omg..that activity was really difficult. Alot of the time we had to go back was because other people were in thier own groups and touched the rope. In that aspect we still have alot more team bonding to do. When we finished I was really happy and proud. So it did end up succesful.

    SOPHIAAAA!

  7. During this activity, i learned that if everyone does voice their opinions and contribute ideas that we can be successful in what we're trying to do. I was really happy that we all came together and got the activity done.

  8. In the activity, we needed to support one another because success doesn't come through your own strength but with others. Some things we can do on our own. Most of the time we need someone to help us. We have to help each others and learn to trust. Learned each others fear and weakness which is hard because we are taought not to show weakness and act tough. I thought this activity was fun and was graet when we got everyone over.

  9. I learned that if you don't have any ideas that it is probably best just to sit back and chill until part of the think-tank needs you.

  10. I learned that activities become easier the more organized and structured they get. Trust was essential to get over the rope and I think everyone improved with that too.

  11. i learned that while trying to achieve success during that activity you needed to cooperate&&be patient with others.you also needed to trust not only your classments but also yourslf.i feel like we struggled as a class to do the activity at first, but then we realized we needed everyone&&their support&&ideas to complete the activity.i'm glad that we finally finished.

  12. i learned that everyone has really good ideas and opinions about our activities we just have to speak up when we see something going wrong and the last two days of this activity were great (: because we all realized we have to focus on one thing at a time to finish!!

  15. The more we worked on the activity, the easier it got. I learned that as long as we cooperate, listen to each others ideas and work together, we can accomplish the activity very easily. The second method was a lot easier for the whole class and we got over pretty fast.

  16. i feel like this activity brought us all a littl closer together and proved that were able to get through it as long as we ALL worked together. It was hard to complete the activity when not everyone was participating or contributing their ideas. I thought this was a lot of fun and it was a really good thing to get the class to get to know eachother better & i think we should do a similr activity again :)

  17. I learned that once we started listening to each other and stopped changing our ideas it finally worked.

  18. I learned that once we started working together and not try to figure the task out by ourselves we became successful in completing the task at hand.

  19. Well i've learned that as long as you respect others' ideas it's easy to achieve a goal. While you try something other people is thinking in other methods to find a way to solve the problem, so it's kind of a listen-respect-act-try again.- system.

  20. At one point, I thought that it was pretty frustrating for all of us. Maybe it was the 2nd or 3rd day doing the activity? Anyways, I think we were able to learn from the frustration we felt. We overcame it, and we knew that we all had to work together in order to be successful. A lot of us shared our ideas to the class and we were able to form those ideas into one big idea. And even though we failed a couple times, we got up, and tried again! We succeeded! Yay :)

  21. This activity brought us so much closer. and i noticed once it got done we clapped at the end, we were all quite enthusiastic, and we felt a great sense of accomplishment. after working hard for so long to get something done, its nice once its finally done. i believe patience really played a role in this.
    frustration led to little to no patience and we couldnt think straight enough to get the activity done.
