Icebreaker 

Take Over!

Students divided into teams, then given a speaking order. The first speaker drew a random topic to speak about aloud in class, for 2 minutes. The other team listened hard to the first speakers presentation for opportunities to take-over the speech. The opposing team listened for the first team to have any deviation, hesitation, and repetition during their presentation in order to challenge. The opposing team called the challenge, then had to explain why they called the challenge. Ms. Adrienne judged each challenge for fairness. Opposing teams judged with fair challenges took over the original speakers spot to continue speaking until the timer ran out. The original speaking team then had an opportunity to challenge the opposing teams speech. Unfair challenges were dismissed and the original team continued their speech until a fair challenge accepted.  Teams that survived the entire 2 minutes earned 10 points, 5 points awarded to the team who was speaking last. 

Daily Activity

Students gathered all last minute items to present their mock science fair project. We used this time to gather supplies, set up mock experiments, and practice our presentation.
