Strengths

- Everyone participate.
- We manage the time well.
- We show example of how to do each exercise.
Weaknesses
- One of our group member came to school late (Bhu).
- We have some problems managing groups in the first
round.
- Someone don’t hear when we said that the time is over
and they have to change to the next exercise.
How to fix the problem

- We didn’t show how to do the exercise for every exercise,
so everyone might not know how to do it.
- We have to increase the time for break, because it was
too short.
