P.E Team Building Activities- Titanic

The first pre unit in P.E was team building activities. The purpose of team building activities is to practice working in teams, making friends, learning to play games, and building teams for the next upcoming units. One of the team building activities was the activity "Titanic". This game's rules:

• You may only have one scooter, one jump rope, two mats on 2 different sides and a bench
• Only one person on your team can touch the ground
• If a person touches the ground and they're not aloud to touch the ground, you must go back to the begging mat

Objective: Get from the begging mat "Titanic" to the ending mat "Rescue Boat". 

Before we started the activity, each team had to make a plan. Here is a picture of my team, making our plan;

After we planned, we got straight into action. Andrey (On the green scooter), was the person we chose to be able to touch the ground. He would take one of us on a scooter and pull us to the bench, and onto the ending mat. Once he rescued people to the other side, we would go back to pull more people. On the bench, the people who were already rescued, help pulled people off of the scooter, safely, without touching the floor. Here is me, Thomas, and Isabelle helping Ryan to the bench, safely.

I really enjoyed this activity and it helped me to develop skills in helping others, making friends and making a plan. I know that I grew a lot during these activities by cooperation. I think the learner attitudes and attributes for this activity were:

• Communicator
• Cooperation
• Thinker
• Risk- Takers
• Confidence
• Open- Minded
• Creativity
• Balanced

I hope to do this activity again! Thanks you Mr. Buggs!!!!
