  1. This was a fine activity. Considering that we completed this activity twice compared to 8th period, i say we did very well.It does not matter to me on the activity we choose for tuesday. I am neutral.

  2. It was a fun activity and i enjoyed it. I think this activity helped us regroup as one class and remember all that we learnt first semester. On tuesday, I do not mind doing either of the tasks.

  3. overall it was a fun activity and like always we seem to have come closer together. in tuesday i really dont have a preference with what we choose to do and i think any of the two will be equally as fun as the other.

  4. I think this was a fun activity. I missed doing group activities with the whole class and I think it helped up remember how to work together as a whole class again. On Tuesday I want to do this activity again.

  5. During the activity, I felt that we needed to listen to each other's ideas more, especially during the last part. But we did work together well. I thought it was fun, and I liked it. As a class, it helped us accomplish working together again after being in our groups, and also problem solving together thinking of ideas that would work while keeping everyone safe. On Tuesday, I think we should finish the activity so we can listen to each other's ideas and figure out how to accomplish it completely together. Though I wouldn't mind if we started to climb. :)

  6. This was a really fun activity, and I really enjoyed doing this. I kinda miss these group activities because we haven't done them in such a long time. I want to do this activity again. I don't think Mr. H has given us a challenge that we haven't been able to finish yet.

  7. I think our class as a whole did really well. No one got mad when the people hit the block in the middle but when they did we just laughed it off and tried it again. Like a few people said I'm fine with either activity. I'd be fine with climbing or continuing to do the island swing.

  8. This was a fun activity. I like how when we messed up, instead of being frustrated or mad, we just kind of laughed about it and started again. I think our class does a good job of voicing our opinions for the most part. I give props to all the people who come up with all the good ideas because we always seem to figure out a way to complete these kinds of activities :) I think we should do the rope activity on Tuesday.

  9. I liked this activity because we haven't done team building activities in a while and this was a good way to start up again. I think we should continue it on Tuesday.

  10. I like this activity because it is such a challenge, but I think that this activity doesn't really involve everyone's opinion because there are definite leaders in this activity. I also think that us standing on the mat is very awkward and I feel like that hinders us to share our opinion on the activity. I wanna start climbing!

  11. I thought this activity was fun. We got to communicate as a class again. I think it would be good to keep trying or move on to climbing.

  12. I liked this activity because it definitely is a harder challenge than what were used to. It helped us come back together as a class. at first our communication was pretty poor. We were having a lot of side conversations. Once we got to the harder level, we started to focus again. It helped us get into the mindset we had before repelling. I want to continue this activity at some point but climbing is fun too!

  13. I really enjoyed the island activity. I had forgotten how much fun our class team building activities were, and am happy that our class is still good at working together and problem solving. I would like to continue the rope activity in class on Tuesday to see if we can get around the mat.

  14. I really enjoyed this activity because it was a change from what we usually do and it was really fun to swing on a rope. We haven't done a team building activity in a while either so that one kinda brought us back to it, whether we do climbing or continue with this activity doesn't matter with me they both sound fun, if we move on to climbing we can come back to the rope activity again sometime too so it doesn't matter to me.

  15. I really enjoyed the rope swing, and would love to do it again sometime. I feel we worked well together to get the rope in the first place, and were smooth as a group in swinging over the gap. While I would like to continue this activity, I'd rather start climbing.

  17. I wasn't here when we did it on Friday, but I was here for the first time we did it on Thursday. I thought our class did a very good job trying to get across and everyone helped each other out. It showed me that even after a break from team building activities, we still can do it.

  18. I thought this activity was fun. We have been in separate groups lately so to get back to working all together was fun. I want to climb but also continue this activity later!
