Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships. I wanted to share with you about a field trip I went on with my class. We went to Bedford ropes course, and it was really fun. I’m going to share about The Rope Bridge,”Indiana Jones” challenge (Beams, wire, and swings), and Rope swing challenge. I’ll also be writing about people and things that I learned about, and all of the fun things I did

Three of my favorite things that I wanted to share were The Rope Bridge, “Indiana Jones” challenge, and the Rope Swing challenge. I really enjoyed the Rope Bridge because it wasn’t too hard even though I almost fell one time. We couldn’t touch the people passing so that is what made it a little challenging and at one point I said noo I really don’t want to fall. The second activity I thought was fun was the Indiana Jones challenge. I liked it because at first it was easy and I said I thought this was going to be more challenging. but then it started to get challenging and no one got past one of the wires. The last activity I wanted to share with you was the Rope Swing challenge. This one was really challenging. Only three people got to the end including me. It was hard to find a good strategy but we did it. When someone made it to the end we all said yay. These were the challenges I really enjoyed.

Something I learned about myself was I’m able to do more things than I thought I could do because when I was waiting my turn to do something I was thinking to myself How am I supposed to do this? It looks really challenging. But then while I was doing it, it was easier than I expected. Another reason I feel I was able to do more things than I thought is because, I was about to fall, I was so close to being done, I was losing my balance and about to fall. I was thinking no I can’t fall, I’m so close to being done, I’ve tried it many times but I kept my balance and made it to the end . Something I learned about my classmates was that they weren’t trying to rush, they were helping instead of putting people under pressure if they fell. Because once I was about to fall but then someone said ”” It helped me not fall. Also on most of the challenges no one was yelling or trying to go first and no one was fighting over who goes first. Something I learned about teamwork is that sometimes it can be very helpful sometimes. Those were some of the important things I learned.

I really liked the “Indiana Jones” challenge, the rope swing, and the rope bridge. I think that Bedford ropes course was really fun, but sometimes challenging, and teamwork was definitely needed. Would you try it, or would like the same or different activities.
