Teamwork!

Mrs. Lott and I decided to do a lesson on teamwork, as we often like to do activities that require our students to work together as a team. We have had some lessons go very well and have loved seeing everyone work together. Other lessons that were a bit more challenging have revealed to us some areas that we need to strengthen...bringing us to this lesson.

Mrs. Lott read a fantastic picture book, "Winners Never Quit", which tells the story of how Mia Hamm, the famous women's soccer star, began playing on her very first soccer team. We emphasized the importance of working together and not giving up. We then split the class into groups, gave them their materials, and told them to make a graph. It was fun to see how well they worked together and the different types of graphs they created!
