Working in a team

In Heaphy, we have been finding out how to work as a team by using lots of fun activities.

1. Building a card tower



2. The balloon kick challenge



3. The shower curtain challenge



We have been thinking about what strategies help us be effective when we work in a team.

Calming down your brain

In Heaphy, we have been learning about two of our brains. One of them helps us survive by either fighting or fleeing but it is a bit wild. The other brain is the thinking brain but it can't work if the brain stem, back or dog brain is in control. We have been thinking about how we can calm ourselves down so that we can think and communicate.
