Teamwork, Teamwork, and MORE Teamwork!

Sometimes I feel like that's all we talk about in class, but it's so important! In this activity called "Scooter Scramble," students had to work in teams to transport different pieces of equipment from the center of the room, back to their team's hoop. Each team is represented by a different color.



With the older classrooms, we talked about creating strategies and reflecting on what worked and what didn't. Some of the kids came up with some really great ideas!


They quickly discovered that working together (like the green and purple teams in the video) was far more beneficial for the team than everyone having their own plan. 

Some students even came up with a little song to remind them of the strategy their team created. 


You heard correctly, "scoot, scoot, slide back." Move over Interscope Records!
