THIRD WEEK OF AUGUST

TEAM WORK: Can work with others as a team to achieve a common goal

Vs. Being a loner, not working well with others

FAMILY ACTIVITY:

Work with your children on difficult tasks around the house. Give them a part to play to help them be part of the family team.
If your child is interested in sports, encourage him or her to join a local sporting league. Tell them how proud you are of them when they play hard and work for the team's good.

CLASS ACTIVITY:

Set a class goal, such as reading a certain number of books in a specific amount of time, and reward the class as a group when they reach their goal.
Encourage seating groups to work together on difficult assignments and on projects, such as memorizing spelling lists.

HIGH SCHOOL ACTIVITY:

Encourage students to work together to prepare for standardized tests by writing a synopsis of areas likely to be covered in the tests and distribute them. This is a practical example of team work.
