Biggest news is that i have added a second deck of cards to the material list. I have done this because having more cards does not realistically make a meter goal any easier if working with standard card house building techniques but makes getting well over a meter possible with a little ingenuity and thus hopefully improving competition.
I have also added an additional potential idea to the student work boxes this afternoon: a pair of scissors. I won't mention them to the students tomorrow but they are there to be used as a spring board for other ways of manipulating the materials.

please feel free to share ideas your team mates might find useful in the comment section below. the idea sharing may seem counter-intuitive at first as you are in a grade competition
