Meeting #5 - 11/14/07

I'm a little late on the blog this week!

During our meeting Wednesday morning we reviewed the ideas the team members came up with for the "DI've Got a Secret" challenge. None of the ideas really stuck and the team decided to revert back to the original idea they had the week prior involving a museum theft and investigation. For next week's meeting each team member was tasked with bringing in an example of an optical illusion. An optical illusion must be present in their performance.

Next we spent a little time talking about goals. Goals for the season ranged from wanting to do better than their team did last year to reaching state and or globals. Next week we will talk a little bit about what they think they need to do to reach those goals and possibly start some planning on how to get there.

We tried to squeeze in an IC (Instant Challenge) but ran out of time before it could be completed. The team's task was to develop a brand new Olympic sport for the 2008 games in Bejiing. You can read the entire challenge here. Unfortunately we ran out of time before the team could finish their presentation of the sport they created. They got far enough where I know it involved balloons, a maze, and spectators were able to watch by walking above the maze on a glass floor.

That is all for this week, be sure to check out the photo album below for the latest pictures.

We will have a meeting next week, even thought it's a 1/2 day.

Thanks,

Mr. H
