In this activity our class was split into different groups and each group had different materials to build the catapult. First, we had to create our own laws, create a language, and draw a temple to trade. We can’t talk when we are trading, but we could use the language we created when we are trading, after we got all the materials we could start to build the catapult, the first group to build it wins. During the activity my job was to design the temple. As a group, we divided the work load up by giving each person a job to work with, after we are done with our own job we could help each other. This way everybody in the group will be working on something. Our biggest accomplishment as a civilisation was everyone was working on something even if they are done with the job the group assigned them to do. Our weakest point as a civilisation was everyone wants to help to build the catapult, but sometime when everybody has different ideas it’ll be kind of messed up. If I could do this activity again, I would change the way I drew the temple, because I spent a long time drawing the inside of the temple. If there’s less detail, then I could save more time.
