The 1st of September.
On the first day of the school year 13 students had planned the activities we had to overcome. Our big class was separated into 5 groups. The first activity was charades . We had to describe a word written on a paper with other relevant synonyms so our group would guess the answer.
In the second and funniest activity we had to prevent balloons from falling on the floor. It was quite hard, because every 3 seconds new balloons were added. The third activity was challenging. Our group had to build a tower from 20 papers and 5 sellotapes. Before building the tower we asked the opinion of each person in our group. We worked collaboratively with others in order to achieve the goal.

After all of those activities we had to construct a kite. Since I have never constructed a kite by myself I developed new skills and undertook new challenges. The materials we had were: garbage bag, sellotapes and sticks. After constructing our kites we headed towards Bitzevsky Park to run them. In this activity, we had a lot of fun and almost all of our handmade kites run very well.
