G.E.O. Team Competitions

What is this "Team Competition" program?
There are four teams in GEO 7 (Australia, Jamaica, Ireland, and New Zealand).  Every week, they have Team Competitions and it is their goal to gather as many points as they can to be hailed as the GEO Cup Champion.

Team Competitions take place every Wednesdays.  For this year's summer GEO, the Speed Quiz is scheduled on the first week; Sports Game on the second week; Country Quiz on the third week; and finally, the Team Drama Competition on the fourth week.



Speed Quiz

Try to guess many words as fast as you can!

During the first week of GEO 7, we played Speed Quiz.  There were players on three chairs.  The first person explains or describes the word on the screen and another person would try to guess it.  After he guesses the word, he goes back on the chair and the person who described the word would have to guess the next one.  The champion of the Speed Quiz was Team Australia.

In my opinion, it would have been better to share the words before the game so that the speed of the game would be faster.

Sports Game

The Teams in the Gym

The sports game was held in the Gym on the second week of GEO 7. There were seven games played during this event. Only one team would win the first prize and get a point in each game. The first game was to untie the string of all members’ shoes. The team who could make the longest line would be the winner. The second game was to tie the string back to the shoes. The third game was "Catch the Tail" and the fourth game was an improvised basketball game. There are four shooters and four rebounders. The team who gets the most balls in the hoop for 3 minutes would be the winner. The fifth game was the same basketball game but the students who were rebounders would have to be the shooters and vice versa. The sixth game was soccer. All of the team members had to kick the ball one by one and of course, make a goal because the one team that scored most would be the winner. The last game was a "Relay Race".  In the end, the champion of the Sports Game was Team New Zealand!

In my opinion, it would have been better to give scores to the first-4points, the second-3points, third-2points and fourth-1point. 

There are two more team competitions left for this camp, Country Quiz and the Team Drama Competition. We want all of the G.E.O students to enjoy the team competition and win together.
