Leaning tower of pasta!

The leaning Tower Of Pasta

20 minutes time to build

*teams of 4 only

*Objective: build the tallest freestanding tower

*Only use the materials given

Today we had a technology challenge. The objective was to creatively build the tallest freestanding( No hands or none given material supports) tower. We had 20 minutes to complete our tower. You could only use the given materials(40 Marshmallows and half a packet of spaghetti straws)

My five innovator trates were: Determined, Passionate, competitive, curious and creative. I think 4 of them were used in our build. I was competitive and wanted to win, I was creative with what to build, I was curious on how to make the tower better. And I was determined to do it!

Next time I would not eat any excess spaghetti because it makes your tummy ache.

Quad death!

Game Adaptations

Use your creative thinking to explore possible adaptations to this game to enhance both the fun factor and the ability to win the game. I have given you one example for each category but challenge yourself with other ideas and thinking.

Attack	Defence	Game Plan/Strategy
Use balls other than netballs that aren’t as heavy so the speed of the travelling ball also speeds up the game.	4 players from each quad are allowed to sit on the bleaches to stretch with their arms and intercept flying balls.	People on the perimeter of the quad pass the ball to someone closer to the bleaches to allow them to throw it further into the opponent's area.

Attack	Defence	Game plan/Strategy
Have all your team throw all the balls at one team to increase the chance of them getting a point! Get the strong throwers at the front so they can get the ball farther to the other side!	4 players from each quad can stand in the middle/front to easily receive and get out the attacking balls	Throw the balls at the opponents heads so they get scared.

Yesterday we played a game what I call" Another One" It was really fun, Exciting and dangerous at the same time. My favourite thing about it was that you could hit people's heads with  the balls!
