What's Going To Work? Teamwork!

Doing activities in class by group is something new to the children. They are quickly getting the hang of it though.

For instance, last Friday I asked them to color the Creation Story. Their initial question was, "Where will we work, teacher?" So I assigned vacant spaces around the classroom for each group. They enjoyed coloring together, as you can see below:



Teamwork at work.


The following Monday, I divided them into groups again, this time for Science. I gave each group several cups with different foods in them (such as M&Ms, cooked ampalaya, salt, sampalok, and calamansi). They then had to find out which food tasted sweet, salty, bitter, or sour.

You can imagine how fast those M&M's disappeared. =)
