The best way to learn about cooperation is to practice! Here are some fun ways you can work together with your friends to show off your spirit of co-operation…
- Start a newsletter –
Prepare a weekly newsletter for your parents, informing them of what you have been doing in school during the week. Get a group of friends together and divide up the duties: writing, designing, layout and printing. Put it all together and give your newsletter a name that shows people your great teamwork skills, like “The Collaborator,” or “Co-operative News.” Be creative!
- Be dramatic –
Get a group together to create a dramatic play that you can perform for family, friends or classmates! Hold a meeting to decide what your play will be about. Decide who the major characters will be, and who will play each character. Write a script, practice your part, and find any props you might need. Put it all together… and you’ve got drama!
- Build a business –
Work together to earn some extra money in the summertime. Start a lemonade stand with a group of friends. Sit down to decide what each of you will do: Who will make the lemonade? Who will make signs so people know what you are selling? Who will sell the lemonade? How much will you sell it for? Work in a team to answer these important questions, and have fun selling delicious lemonade to your family, friends and neighbours!
- Diversify –
For this activity, you will need a large map of the world and some colourful thumbtacks – be careful with the thumbtacks! Ask your friends and classmates to name their ethnic backgrounds, and locate everyone’s country of origin on the map with a thumbtack. See how many different countries your group represents.
