STORY WRITING

STORY WRITING

Task : write a story
Number of rounds per each group: 4 rounds
Rules :

• All the members has to face back to the white board.
• Can write only one word at time.
• Cannot communicate with each other

Objective : write a meaningful story in a less time

In our PPD session we did above mentioned activity by getting into 3 groups. Each group had given a marker pen to write the story.

Our group has being trying to write a story about a ghost in a childs dream. It was very hard to make a meaningful  story without communicating. But we somehow managed to make the story. But it was not very meaningful one.

After completing the story we read all stories. each and every group have done the same thing as our group. that was a great activity which teach us communicating is very important for any kind of group activity.

Things that we learned :

1. Without communicating a group work cannot be done as expected.
2. Communication is a must to our success.
3. fixing a half ended activity might be hard if we have no idea about how the previous guys have done it.

On our PPD(personal progress and  Development) session we have given the above task by our madam. There were only two groups.

Things we learnt by this activity:

1. Time managing
2. Work as a team
3. Overcome obstacles
4. Choose the best members  to compete with other teams(eg:- to fly the planes)
