Group Work

As part of the Sixth Grade Outdoor Education Camp experience, students must cooperate and work as a group. In order to prepare students, they will have several opportunities to work together, and get their group ready for camp.

Today students had to make 2 lists:
The Top 10 Things That will Help a Group Succeed The Top 10 Things You Don't Want to Happen at Camp

After making the lists, students then shared their top three with the entire sixth grade class. Their lists were interesting, and the groups worked well together. Below is a compilation of the lists.


The Top 10 Things That will Help a Group Succeed

1. Teamwork
2. Encourage each other and be supportive

I think that those are very good things to not want to do at camp. I also think they are kinda funny. I can't wait to go to camp. I like our camp groups because I'm with my best friend (Shayna).

I think that camp is going to be really fun because I have never been there before and it would be something new to me. I have herd people tell me about it and they tell how much fun that they had except for Shad I know that he had a great time until what happened when he was playing FOOT BALL. I think the the list well both of them are awesome but one thing you forgot to put DON'T WANT TO SEE MR. MCGUIRE IN A SPEEDO. I am sure that who ever has gas MR.MCGUIRE WOULD NOT ENJOY IT .

I am definitely going to follow these rules. But why wasn't see Mr. McGuire in a speedo on the 10 top things you don't want to happen?

P.S.
I'm sure it was on every list!
