Group Work

Getting Going with Group Work

Each we we have a school wide behaviour expectation to focus on and learn about.  During Samoan language Week, our focus was on group work.  

In Te Rōpū Whakamanawa, we did a Samoa Information Hunt in groups.  We discussed our expectations and how we could make a group task successful.  In groups that were selected by Miss Waho, we had information cards and puzzle pieces to complete using the information on the cards.  We needed to use communication and organisation skills in order to complete the task.  
Here are a few pictures of what we did:

Each person has a section to complete.
Students had to work together to find relevant information.

One group managed to complete their puzzle and mounted it to coloured paper for display in our learning space.  We will continue to work on these until they are completed and ready for display.

  1. Kia Ora Miss Waho, I really loved those activities, it helps us learn more about samoan language week, My favourite part of the activity is working well with others and helping them when they're stuck on something, And we collaborated with other people very well, I think we should do this more often every language week. Are we able to finish off our work? is there any chance by presenting our group presentation?
