My curriculum partner has been using 'Get it Together' activities for years and let me tell you, they are AMAZING! They are a series of clues that students must work together to come up with a solution. They range from building models with blocks/sticks, arranging the order of people to figuring out how many things each person has.
Students may not always be excited about these activities at first but within seconds of diving into problems, they are 100% engaged and working their hardest. The groups of students that are usually 'too cool' for group activities are usually the most enthralled by these. The activities range in difficulty and could be used for high school students also. Amazing resource that I think all should try.
