This was an unusual warmup. Last year we did not have to many warmups that were not written on paper. I still don't understand how that warmup related to the class that day but I don't care, it was better than other warmups. Maybe it was just trying to get our groups to work together. But if that was the point, then why couldn't we talk while we were assembling the structure.
I think that our group really did win the straw contest. According to miriamwebster.com the defenition of free - standing is " adjective1 : standing alone or on its own foundation." Our straw structure was technically standing on its own, but with the help of the light. Even though the intstructions did not say that we couldnt't use tape, we took the tape off and it still was connected. I think that we should have been champions.

What's the point?
point #1- following directions, hence the extra direction of silence
Point #2- working together
point #3- unique problem solving
point #4- setting a tone that we won't always do things that make sense or are traditional
