The Barter Puzzle

             The Barter Puzzle

                 

On the 4th of October we had another interesting activity as usual. This time it was a puzzle. At first we were divided in to several groups and one from each team was summoned to the lecturer's table and all were given a piece of cardboard with one side blank and the other side with an image.

We weren't supposed to look at the image and we were asked to cut the cardboard in to 90 small pieces. At first non of us had any idea what are we going to get later, so we started cutting them without any pattern or shape.

After we had finished Miss. Sarasi put all the small pieces in separate envelopes and a small number of pieces were jumbled in other teams' envelopes. So the task we were given was to find out our teams missing parts from other teams and to complete the puzzle first. 

For this we had to search for our missing pieces and we had to negotiate with others, and even to beg sometimes. 

And then we numbered the pieces which we had set already and continued the same task on next week and it was 11th of October.

We were able complete the puzzle by 95% and this activity helped us to learn so many things;

• Logical thing
• Team working
• Time management
• Working Co operatively with otherWe also had a lot of fun during the session.
