Team Building: Tower of Spaghetti!
As we approach the grand finale of our space event, it’s time to unleash your collaborative genius in a tower-building challenge that combines engineering finesse with a dash of spaghetti madness. Get ready to engage in cosmic team-building exercises and construct the tallest tower that defies gravity!
Objective:
Your mission is to work as a cosmic team to build the tallest tower using the humble yet versatile building material – spaghetti! This challenge is not just about reaching new heights; it’s about communication, collaboration, and the triumph of teamwork.
Tower Building Guidelines:
- Materials: Includes spaghetti, 1 meter of tape and 1 marshmallow.
- Height Challenge: The goal is to construct the tallest free-standing tower. Bonus points for creativity and structural stability!
- Time Limit: Engage in a race against the cosmic clock! You have a set time to plan, design, and construct your tower.
- Team Roles: Assign cosmic roles within your team – architects, builders, communicators, and quality controllers. Every role is pivotal in achieving tower greatness.
- Judging: The marshmallow must be suspended on the structure and not fall over for 10 seconds to count.
Debriefing Session:
After the tower-building frenzy, gather for a cosmic debriefing session. Reflect on the team-building exercises, share insights gained, and discuss the challenges and triumphs of constructing your spaghetti masterpiece.
