> LOSING YOUR MARBLES

> Materials:
> Roll of masking tape
> 5 cardboard tubes (from paper towel or toilet paper rolls)
> 2 sheets of paper
> 10 index cards
> 10 straws
> 20 toothpicks
> 10 marbles (for movement only)
> Scissors (for construction only; may not be used as part of maze)
> Bucket
>
> Prep:
> User masking tape to mark a line 12 inches from the edge of a table. Place the bucket on the floor 3 feet away from the taped line (2 feet from the edge of the table).

> Instructions to the team:
> You have 7 minutes to create a maze to move marbles from the tabletop into the bucket. Each marble must begin its movement behind the line taped on the table. Marbles may not be thrown. Once your structure is complete, you will have one minute to roll the marbles.
>
> Discussion:
> Did one person come up with the maze design and convince the other team members to try it, or was it a joint decision-making process? If one person came up with the design, what role did the other team members play? Is it more efficient to have one person in charge of design? If so, what effect does that have on the team?
