Team building     By Jessica

“ Left, right, left, right!” my team of 4 yelled. We were with Mr Whiting doing team building and our first activity in team building was where we had to get in groups of 4, with boys and girls, then walk across part of the field on the ski mask. We weren't that bad and were in fact better than most of the other people in A3. The time was 6 minutes and 43 seconds, I think.

The next activity was climbing over a high wall where one of the sides was easy. Well, I found that one of the sides were kind of like a built in ladder! I found it easy (I'm not scared of heights) so for the people who were, we cheered for them and they made it.

The hard part was getting back over on the flat side. First we had to choose who was going to lift everyone up. We chose Vinny, Casey and Spencer. I was the first to go up. I know this sounds weird but I thought of it like riding a horse. It is like that because when you hop on a horse you swing one leg over first, then sit on it. So that’s what I did, but if you were one of the people who were not pulling people up from the top (which I was), you would go back over the other side.

Overall I think we are now a better team because of this.
