Today in social group, we took what we have learned this year about the Zones of Regulation, how our behavior affects others, and how our actions affect how we look to others. We took these skills and applied it to a cup challenge!
Each team was given 10 cups and a rubber band with 3 strings attached. The students had to work together to lift the cups using the rubber band and strings to make a tower. This required working together but not using their hands!
After they worked together to build a tower, we shared what worked and what didn't work and how we can change what we did. They had a few minutes to brainstorm before they tried again, with different teams!
We then had all the students work together with all 20 cups to build a structure with NO TALKING. There was 1 student designated as the "leader" and had to guide his peers to build a tower with pointing and motions.
All students work so well together and were able to build a tower!
Happy 100th Day of School!
