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
