Get ready for our first-ever Destination Imagination Virtual Instant Challenge: Unknown Structure! This virtual activity is designed for a group of kids or teens to do together online through a video chat app or platform. For this challenge, group members will need to use a specific set of materials to build a structure that can hold a Ping-Pong ball. They will not know ahead of time what they will be scored on for this challenge.
Group members will need to complete the structure portion of the challenge on their own. (The group can determine the time limit for this part of the challenge.) After all group members complete their structures, they will meet online and a parent will provide them with the scoring elements.
