Create A Series of Cascading Contraptions
Teams build a series of enormous contraptions which when aligned in sequence to form an amazing chain reaction!
How It Works
Each team has a set amount of time to construct a large contraption from a specifically designed kit. Once complete, teams with come together and work as one to connect each of their contraptions together. Once the build is complete and the contraptions are joined together, a one tonne weight is dropped and the rat is trapped, giving success to the teams!
Learning Outcomes
Rat Trap brings teams to work together. Each individual must work with their team within a limited amount of time to construct a section of the Rat Trap. The construction process requires problem solving skills, project management and leadership skills. Teams come together and are working towards a common goal, effectively communicating and sharing ideas and strategies to connect the sections of the Rat Trap together. Once complete, they share in the success of the final result.
