We will do this by sharing fun information about ourselves. Due to the nature of this group there may not be difficult information to be shared so the group dynamic should be light and fun. We will build strong and positive relationships throughout this group. We will establish the group rules and continue to enforce them to create a safe space for students.
STAGE 2- we will complete tasks that are hands-on and open sharing. We will continue to work towards building strong and positive relationships through the activities we are completing while developing our goal setting and decision making skills. We will continue to enforce rules in order to develop those relationships.
STAGE 3- we will complete a life map that we will share with one another to show the development and progress we have made throughout the group work. We will continue to enforce the rules and we will evaluate how they have impacted our success as a group. ]]> 2021-04-15 14:44:39 UTC https://padlet.com/tatkinson17/jhsskh711lt8e3qp/wish/1421360008 tatkinson17 https://padlet.com/tatkinson17/jhsskh711lt8e3qp/wish/1421394958 For the purpose of this group a situational leadership style should be taken. A situational leader can take 1 of 4 approaches for the purpose of the group the leader will need to 'sell' the idea of students feeling excited about decisions and the activities taking place. ]]> 2021-04-15 14:51:02 UTC https://padlet.com/tatkinson17/jhsskh711lt8e3qp/wish/1421394958 tatkinson17 https://padlet.com/tatkinson17/jhsskh711lt8e3qp/wish/1421422669 Often times high school students feel as though they are alone in their struggles even with something as minute as making decisions- universality would be potentially recognized through this group. Imparting of information on goal setting and decision making will also take place. There is an opportunity for altruism to take place within student relationships. Interpersonal learning will come from students offering each other suggestions and helping one another with goal setting and decision making. ]]> 2021-04-15 14:55:59 UTC https://padlet.com/tatkinson17/jhsskh711lt8e3qp/wish/1421422669 tatkinson17 https://padlet.com/tatkinson17/jhsskh711lt8e3qp/wish/1422149052 TEC 33.005 B (1) a guidance curriculum to help students develop their full educational potential, including the students interests and career objectives.
