Today we used a fun project to teach the importance of understanding what is expected when one accepts a responsibility, and the importance of "doing what you said you would do" once you accept a responsibility.
We created a company with the goal of erecting a Tinker-Toy building in one minute. Everyone in the class had a job in the company from treasurer, purchasing agent, architect, sub-assembly manufacturer, construction, quality control etc. We also had suppliers and bankers who had a part.
Everyone needed to understand their part in the construction, before we began erecting the structure, and everyone did their job perfectly. We had our building up in fifty-eight seconds, and it passed the stringent quality control requirements of Mrs. Dicke.
CONGRATULATIONS CLASS!!!
