Cooperation and teamwork Learning Target: I CAN collaborate with others to achieve a common goal.

COOPERATION AND TEAMWORK Remember the definition of Cooperation: Working or acting together for a common purpose or benefit. Remember your Personal Strengths: Look at your Power Card from the first lesson about Cooperation and Teamwork if you need a reminder.

Pathway challenge Click on the link below for a demonstration of this challenge: https://youtu.be/R8vbc6mfMMQ

Divide class into two groups and set timer for 18 minutes Count off: 1-2-1-2-1-2…and divide Roundup class into two groups. Each group picks an honest leader who will be given the path. The leader cannot show the rest of the group the path. They can only tell if the team member stepped on the correct path or not. Set timer for 18 minutes and begin!

discuss and debrief Guided discussion: As a whole class share your thoughts, observations, experiences: What was challenging about this activity? How did your group cooperate with each other? What roles did people play in your group? How could your cooperation have improved?

Pillar: cooperation Think about how you had to cooperate with others to achieve a COMMON GOAL during today’s group activity. Sometimes we are not even sure WHAT our goal may be…but COOPERATION and TEAMWORK and TRUST were still necessary. Reflect on how you can apply the Pillar of Cooperation everyday…at school, at home and in the community.
