We did a lot of fun activities, and learned about so many different things during this week's camping week activities. One of the most important lessons of the week, a skill that's needed in so many aspects of our lives, was teamwork. We learned this important lesson through setting up our campsites, a nature scavenger hunt, art projects and games. Today, all the lessons and activities came together while playing a very special team building game. For this game we split up into five teams. Each team was given a t-shirt that had been maticously folded, soaked in water, then frozen solid. Each team was then instructed to pick a team member that would wear the shirt, once it was thawed and unfolded. Each team was also given one small bucket. The winner was the first team to thaw, unfold, and dress their chosen team member in the shirt. This is where the magic began! The ideas started to fly, and it wasn't long before someone thought of using the small buckets to get water to help thaw the shirts. We heard yells of put it in the sun, sit on it, hug it, and all manner of great ideas. We were so proud of all our teams! They were problem solving and working together to accomplish the task at hand. Even after a winner was declared, all the other teams continued working hard until each and every t-shirt was thawed and being worn by the chosen ones. These are the kind of days teachers dream of!
