Christmas Tree + Math = FUN!

On Friday, Mrs. Wanke  put all the parts of our Christmas tree on the floor, without the instructions, and told us that we had to work together as a team to correctly build the tree.  

It took us a bit to figure it out.  At times our tree looked a little funny! However, this activity taught us so much! 

We discovered the following things will help us in any group activity.
1. The importance of  developing a plan first
2. How to listen to everyone's ideas
3. How to effectively communicate our ideas
4. We shouldn't all do our own thing.
5. How to work as a team.

Because of our AMAZING team work and communication, our class got the closest to correctly putting together the tree.  We were only 2 branches off!  Future classes have their work cut out for them!
