My Project

This year I did a mini room transformation of Fear Factor and tied it to drawing conclusions. My students had to stick there hand in blacked out tissue boxes to feel mystery items and figure out what they were. They also had to smell inside blacked out tissue boxes to figure out scents. The final station was to eat something while blindfolded and decide what the food was.

I want to take this a step further and really blow their minds.

The tissue boxes didn't hold up, so the planters will hold all the mystery items. I want to make the room dark and scary to give it that fear factor effect. I want this to be a room transformation (and reading skill) they will never forget!
