Description
Materials Needed:
25 sheets of paper.
Some tape to secure the paper to the ground.
Printer to print key for all three rounds or you can load key on computer
Phone or sound device to play tones (optional).
Timer or stopwatch (optional).
Embark on the thrilling activity where students, organized into groups, navigate a 5 by 5 grid of sheets to conquer the maze. Participants must strategically choose one sheet per row, aiming to reach the other side safely.
The catch? Only certain sheets are marked as safe, and the pattern changes with each round! As teams make decisions, tones guide them, signaling correct choices or missteps. With three rounds of evolving challenges, the first group to successfully maneuver their way to victory claims the title.
This engaging and dynamic activity fosters teamwork, decision-making skills, and adaptability, making it a classroom favorite.
