You will need a shoebox or similar box with lid. Using modeling clay design a model to have students replicate. Divide the students into groups of 5.  \nThe group is to decide who is the most observant one in their group. The most observant selected views the clay model in a group for 1 minute away from class. Their team will have white paper and modeling clay to reproduce what the viewer describes. They cannot use their hands (only verbal descriptions) . Colors count. Give the group 10 minutes to complete the replication. I awarded extra credit to the group that had the  \nmost correct.
