The 5th grade did a team building activity to get to know each other better and how to work together. Their task: Sam is stuck on a boat, and how he got there is not important, but Sam can’t swim and the boat is capsized. To get to shore, Sam needs to retrieve a life jacket from underneath the boat so that he can float to shore. You cannot use their hands to save Sam. All you can use is a toothpick and 2 paperclips!!! Many groups were successful and they all worked together beautifully.
