1st Graders have been learning how habits of character help them do work. We will explore these three habits of character: initiative, collaboration, and perseverance, through literature and experience.
Our first team challenge was to build the highest tower using cups from ALL teammates! Each teammate was given 4 cups and given 2 minutes to plan together. After their planning session, teams were given 5 minutes to build! As teams were building, teachers checked in to measure their tower's height.
Many 1st graders took initiative to plan their ideas on paper and share with their teammates!
Let's see our plans in action! Our Cup Towers ranged in height from 16 inches up to 31 inches! Way to Go, TEAMWORK!
