Cupcake Activity! We are going to hand everyone a cupcake that has a toothpick attached to a piece of paper. It is your job to get in your group and prioritize the events on the papers from most important to least. When everyone is done, we will debrief and then eat :)

Cupcake Debrief -How did your group decide which events were more important than others? -Did your group have any disagreements on what event should have been most or least important? -Do you prioritize your personal activities well?
