Problem Solving
It's hard for a kid to learn when s/he can't see past frustrations with "the rules". This activity asks students to think reflectively on WHY rules exist and gives him/her a chance to put him/herself in the shoes of the one who makes the rules. It's a rare opportunity for students to experience taking the perspective of someone else.
