Welcome back John Hay ACE seniors and mentors! And a warm welcome to new students and mentors, too! Everyone is looking forward to another successful year of the ACE Mentor Program of Cleveland.
On Tuesday, October 25, John Hay ACE seniors participated in a shelf and team building exercise as the Icebreaker session, led by Gilbane Building Company. Students were divided into four teams and tasked with building shelves for their ACE classroom.
Each student within a small group was assigned a role of architect, project manager, builder, and quality engineer. The architect and project manager communicated the instructions to the builder, who was the only student allowed to use the tools to piece the shelf together. The quality manager was responsible for assuring that all pieces were assembled properly and consistent with the architect’s instructions. The project manager was responsible for overseeing the entire task. Students changed roles every 10 minutes so that each student had the opportunity to experience the responsibilities of each role. This was a timed exercise and the first group of students that completed the shelf correctly was awarded a prize.
All the students did a great job! Students meet again on November 1 for a Google Sketch-Up lesson led by ARRAY.
