Working Well in a Group
Work effectively as part of a small group — contributing their own ideas, listening to others' ideas, taking on a fair share of the work, and supporting the group to reach a shared goal
Lesson
Set out your lesson
“Working Well in a Group means practising contribute, listen, fair share, and shared-goal support in a small group. We will practise once together, then check a fresh example.”
Bring to the table
- Group habit cards: contribute, listen, fair share, shared goal
- Tiny group task (sort cards together)
Extra for the adult
Worked example. I share an idea, listen, do my fair share, and help the group reach the goal.
Optional challenge. For Working Well in a Group, name all four habits.
What to notice. Keep one parent note: habits practised; support used. This session samples group work, not mastery of teamwork theory.
