CONTENT STATEMENT

Groups are accountable for choices they make and actions they take.

CONTENT ELABORATION

As students work in groups to solve a problem or complete a task, they understand that the group is accountable for choices made and actions taken. Students work collaboratively in groups to:

  • determine goals;
  • assign tasks for individuals;
  • complete assigned responsibilities; and
  • determine if goals are reached.
  • Cooperation in group settings requires personal skills such as:
  • managing conflict peacefully and compromise where necessary;
  • displaying courtesy to others in the group; and
  • respecting self and others.

These personal skills build toward development of the social and emotional skills that students need to negotiate interactions and conflict resolutions with others.

EXPECTATIONS FOR LEARNING

Work collaboratively in a group to complete a task or solve a problem for which the group is held accountable.
