For Business Tech, Ed Tech, Accounting and Advanced Tech students. After you have solved the puzzle help your neighbor and then you may web browse. Read all of the information below and good luck with your problem solving! Our golf team is competing in the district golf tournament. I will return to school on Wednesday. Be kind and courteous with our substitute.

This is an IQ tester. The object of the game is to get everyone across the river. This is a test some Japanese applicants have to take when applying for a job in Japan. The odd thing to me is, once you begin taking people across the river, you can't remember how you got them there when you have to start again. Once you begin this test, it's hard to stop. You feel so determined to get these people across. The instructions are listed below. After reading, click on the link. Enjoy! For my business tech students periods 1 & 8 indicate your solution as a post in your blog.

This is going to do your head in, but it can be done.
Apparently this is an IQ test given to job applicants in Japan: "Everybody has to cross the river".

The following rules apply:
Only 2 persons on the raft at a time
The father cannot stay with any of the daughters, without their mother's presence

The mother cannot stay with any of the sons, without their father's presence

The thief (striped shirt) cannot stay with any family member, if The Policeman is not there

Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft

To start click on the big blue circle on the right.
To move the people click on them.
To move the raft click on the pole on the opposite side of the river

When you have finished, click on the "can you create links?" link for other web pages.
