Last Term This year all of the work that you will be completing will be at a Level 2, this means that the quality of your work needs to be at a higher standard than it was last year. Last term we worked on a Mini-enterprise project. I want you now to write a review of how you felt the process went.

Task You need to line yourselves up in a straight line according to your month of birth (with the oldest student standing near the front of the room and the youngest at the back) THE CATCH!!!

This is a game of teamwork, you need to work together to achieve this task Timer

HOW EASY? How easy was it to organise yourselves into the line without talking? How did you communicate with each other? Did anyone take on the role of leader? How could you complete this task or a similar task in a quicker time period? Timer
