Family TASC (Thinking Actively in Social Contexts) Day
March 2009
Fifteen families from Wessex took part in our first problem solving day for families. Children and parents worked together to solve a range of problems and challenges, whilst at the same time working together, listening and learning from each other. The feedback we received was hugely positive and the fun, practical and occasionally messy activities were enjoyed by all.
Finding out which family had made a suitable container for their egg

Making a spaghetti tower to hold a Kinder egg.

This is what some of the families thought:
"Great fun!"
"We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was very interesting to find out that we all interpret the same instructions very differently."
"It would be great to do this once a term."
