Ropes Challenge Course
The first thing that we started out with was playing a name game, where we stood in a circle and threw a ball to a random person. Then, when we threw it we had to say “here you go… ” and say the person’s name and when they caught the ball they had to say “Thank you…” and say the person’s name. This helped us to learn each other’s name and made us get to know each other, which also helped us when we played other games later during the course. The next activity we did was that we all got on a log and we had to think of an animal. After picking our animals, we had to get all the animals in order from smallest to largest on the log and they told us we could not talk and the only noise we could make with each other is by using our animal noises. This thought us to communicate with each other. The last thing we did was a maze. Where we were blindfolded at the beginning and taken to the maze. There we were told to hold on to the rope and if we followed the rope we would find our way. You could only say two things am I good or can I have some help. And then we later found out that you had to ask for help that was the whole point.
This helped us learn our classmates’ names. The activities thought us team work and how to communicate well. W also learned that sometime times it is good to ask for help.
These activities had a lot to do with making connections because we worked out the human knot together and as a team. We also had to learn to communicate together and that helped us be connected.
Going back again will help us because how we know each other and can communicate better.
It will help you get along and work well with your employees, employer, coworkers, etc. You will than know how to work in a team and how to communicate.
