# Moving the Goalpost Activity Pack | Critical Thinking Activities **Price:** $12.95 AUD **Seller:** TeachBuySell Seller **Year Levels:** noYearLevel **Subjects:** english ## Description (seller-submitted) "Do 10 push-ups and I'll be impressed." You crush it. "Okay, but can you do 20?" You hit the target. They moved it. And now you're back to square one. Someone sets a condition for success. You meet it.
