  3. Each team is challenged to assist two of their group members to hold as many pieces of paper off the ground by using only their bodies.
  4. To guide fair play, announce that:
    – Only one sheet of paper can be affixed between any two body parts;
    – No adhesives can be used to hold paper to one’s body;
    – Folding the paper is not permitted;
    – Each sheet of paper must be in contact with both team members; and
