Collaboration

 

We focused in on our Habit of Character of Collaboration.  Throughout the year we have discussed that collaboration was about working together.

Students learned that it means a lot more than that!

We learned to actively listen when others were sharing their ideas.  We used a "talking stick" to give each person a chance to share their ideas and the other team members an opportunity to listen closely to others' ideas.

Each small group was given a group of supplies to collaborate to create something.

After many days of listening, discussing and working together, each team collaborated and made a creation.  It was a week full of feedback, some conflict and productive problem solving.  Collaboration is hard!  As a crew, we are committed to continue to keep practicing to help our collaboration muscles get stronger.
