Lava River

We had an another interesting activity which was given us by our madam Miss.Sarasi. By name it is called Lava River. For this activity we were divided into groups by our madam. There were 20 students and then we had 4 groups. In each group there were 5 members. Our madam had brought the resources for the activity. They are cardboard plates which were cut in the shape of circles. She called them as stones.

First our madam gave instructions to telling us how we should do this activity. Lava River is a game. In this game we have to cross a lava river using those stones. Each group was given 4 stones. We have to go from one bank to the other bank of the river using those stones. All 4 stones should have the human touch through out the process. If it lose human touch we will lose the stone and we have to cross the river with the remaining stones. And if someone step on the lava, that group have to start from the beginning. And only 3 times we can step on lava.

    -First we were given 10 minutes to discuss about a strategy on how we should cross the lava river.
    -After that 10 minutes we started to cross the river and our madam started to count the time which we take to cross the river.






From this activity we learned to accomplish a given task with the limited resources and with the help of team members. And finally it was a very interesting activity to remember.
