A COIN

A COIN

This is the last lecture in our GNCT in the first year. Madam give a interesting game for us. This game is coin for a through. First madam collected the coins to us then put the coins in to the purse next madam told rotated the for each member after that coin passing time we stoped the passing when madam tapped the table and we got one coin out and we had to speak about the memories we had related to the year of the coin.  The session was going awesome as this was totally impromptu and our colleagues were bringing out some funny and interesting things happened to them in the respective years. When I got the chance to speak, the coin I got was a 2/-  coin which was released in 2006. So, here is the story which I related to the class, the story of how I survived Death.

It was the month of December in 2006, and it was a rainy season. One Sunday morning I was playing in the garden and suddenly I got the idea of overseeing the well because I knew that the well would have filled with water because of the rain. 

When I peeped through the well,  an idea suddenly got struck in my mind, "What if I touch the water of the well from my little feet? Then it would be my super hero story in the school". So I started gliding through the rope of the well until my foot touched the water and which I managed to do without any difficulty. But suddenly matters got out of hand and I started slipping through the rope until water was in to my chest level.

Luckily I managed to hold the rope with my left hand and my right hand was holding the iron pipe which was connected to the motor. Then I started shouting "බේරගනියෝ!! බේරගනියෝ!!" so loud. Luckily my sister was playing in the garden and she came running to save my life. She managed to take me out from the jaws of death after scolding me for  putting myself inside the well.

PUZZLE

PUZZLE

First madam divide 4 groups . 1st madam told choose one member in each group and come to front .madam gave one card and told to cut into 90 pieces then our team leader cut that in to 90 pieces after madam took 10 pieces out of 90 and put the pieces in to another group bags.put 80 pieces in our bag.then madam said we want to collect the 10 pieces using strategic and join the full of 90 pieces in 1 piece.

We weren't supposed to look at the image and we were asked to cut the cardboard in to 90 small pieces. At first non of us had any idea what are we going to get later, so we started cutting them without any pattern or shape.

After we had finished Miss. Sarasi put all the small pieces in separate envelopes and a small number of pieces were jumbled in other teams' envelopes. So the task we were given was to find out our teams missing parts from other teams and to complete the puzzle first. 

For this we had to search for our missing pieces and we had to negotiate with others, and even to beg sometimes.

And above all, since the shapes were not regular and the image looked same in most of the places, we found it hard to set the puzzle. And due to this we couldn't complete it with the given time.

We were able complete the puzzle by 96% and this activity helped us to learn so many things;

• Team work
• Time management
• Working Cooperatively with others
• Negotiating
• Logical thinking

Group members: keerthy,powsikan,zeena,nimesha,mithilan and myself

for that , first we divided into groups and lecturer gave an egg and 5 half-sheet for each group 

then within the time limit we need to make cover for our egg and when the cover throw up and must wait for the landing when cover lands the unbroken egg cover is the winner.

first we made a sketch for our plan. that we thought ,to cover the egg in 720 degree

then it will never brake whatever angle that will fall.so the cover we made, protected the egg how we thought.

so sketch of our plan helped us make it success.when we finished the work all groups are submitted
