  6. I think Puzzle pieces win because puzzle pieces are the things that we need to know in life and strength is something that has been inside you all along and strength is important but not that much in silverdale we have puzzle pieces like:taking action, being in charge, being connected and wellbeing so as you can see puzzle pieces is something you need to know and DO!!strength is like lifting something and having strength so puzzle pieces has strength as well so strength is also like can do attitude but i think Puzzle Pieces should win and i hope you think that to

    2. I agree but I'd also like to add on... Having a can do attitude can succeed goals but you always need strategy's for those problems. Strategy's that you have used before.
