Did it take up a lot of your guys' time to build the tent/covering for the excavation?

Was it hard?

RheaActually, it didn't take very long to build the tent - only about 1 hour!  It was amazingly fast - the thing that took the longest was going back down to the beach to find more materials when we needed them.  Everyone worked together, though, and got it put up pretty quickly.  Since we had about 8-10 people helping, it wasn't very hard - the hardest part was figuring out how we were going to build it, since we had to make it up as we went and several people had different ideas about what would be best to do....we had to problem solve AND work as a team!
(I'll bet that you can relate to that - since you work on these skills every day in math class!)
