Place six sticky notes on your faux dry erase board
On the first two stickies write “One fun thing you did this summer”
On the next two stickies write “One way you relaxed this summer”
On the next two stickies write “Your favorite TV shoes you watched or caught up on this summer”
When the signal word is given you will stand up, hand up, and pair up
Each partner takes a turn reading the other partners sticky notes
As one partner reads they take sticky notes that relate to them somehow.
RULE: There must be one sticky note left on the other persons board at all times
When done find a new partner until time is called

Starting with one person read a sticky from your board
Initial your sticky and place it in the center of the table
If there are any other team members who can relate to that sticky they initial it
Continue until all stickies are gone

15. October “SAM” Rally Coach
Tips and Tricks:
Be sure to model coaching techniques repeatedly.
Focus on 4 “T”s of coaching:
Tip*, Tip*, Teach, *Try Again
Provide coaching hints on the overhead, backs of QQT cards, etc.
Can be used with worksheets for 100% engagement.
Answer sheet can be given or anchor chart used.
Will be much more effective if Classbuilders and Teambuilders are being used weekly.
