Team Building String Challenge Activity

Mrs. Napolski's Math Class

Team-building activities strengthen groups of people while working to accomplish a collective goal. Incorporating mathematical skills into your next team-building activity will allow students to solve subject specific problems within a group setting and strengthen analytical abilities as well as cooperative characteristics. Use unique materials in unfamiliar ways to challenge the groups when incorporating team-building activities into mathematical group work.

The whole class worked together to be able to suspend the ball in the air. Once they accomplished this, they were given challenges to complete. Including, suspending a cup or suspending a cup and a ball. A couple students came up with the challenge of being able to move as a group while suspending an object! They were successful with this as well.
