Team-building and Pizza Party

In the last two years I have really enjoyed starting out all my P.E. classes with team-building activities.  I have been working to make sure that all the classes get to do different activities each year.  This year I ordered a new Object-Retrieval Team-building kit that you can do 6 different activities with. In the pictures below the 10th graders are participating in an activity called "Robot Writing".  They were tasked with writing "HOPAC" on a piece of paper.  They were not allowed to get any closer to the paper than the length of their rope.  They  did a really good job with this, but it is a good thing I didn't grade them on their team handwriting!
 
 




The end result!

To celebrate the end of the first full-week my housemates and I had our first pizza party of the year.  It was fun to fire up the pizza oven again and actually put it to use early in the year.  I made three double batches of pizza dough and cooked them beforehand to make the process a little quicker. The housemates helped to roll them out.  I believe we made around 60 small pizzas in the oven on Friday night.  I am hoping a few more pizza nights happen before I leave in December.  Unfortunately I only took this picture of the pizzas and no pictures of people.
