Working Together as a Team

Mrs McKenzie gave us 25 paper cups for each group. 

The challenge: who can build the tallest tower?

We talked in our groups and came up with our plans.

                        

What did we find out?

Team work is ...

• not always easy
• you have to have a team agreement before you start
• working together
• listen to each other
• experiment and try out new ideas
• try each others plans to find which one works the best
• share together
• be respectful of each other

Together we discussed what a good learner looks, sounds and thinks like at Hamilton East School.
