Collaboration

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a nice day. Today I will be talking about how well my collaborating skills are. Here some questions I have been asked and I have answered them. Read and enjoy.

1. How well do you think you collaborate in a pair, small group or in a big group? Explain this.
I collaborate best within small groups and pairs because it's easier talking to 2-4 then 7 people because with 2-4 people it's also easier to hear everyone points and perspective.


2. Which one (independent, pair, small group, or big group) do you think you work better in and why?
Big groups because I always get frustrated when I feel like i'm being ignored or pushed away from a project.


3.What do you still need to improve on within collaboration?
I need to improve on taking in other suggestions.


4. What should the "ideal" collaboration look, sound, and feel like in the Kaupeka hub?
It should look like people working together and being able to take in questions without doubt. It needs to sound like people communicating in a way everyone understands and not people just shouting randomly, everyone needs to wait for there say. It should feel like that you aren't afraid to make a suggestion but you should also feel like to can take in ideas yourself.

I hope you enjoyed me answering those questions.

Now how good do you think your collaborating skills are?

Peer Mediation

Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a nice day.
Today I will be talking about my peer mediation
As you may know Kaupeka hub (year 7&8) have been doing peer mediation in the school similar to what duty teachers do. We also get put in certain areas, for example area a would be the front court, area b is the back field and area c is the court in the middle of the school.
When I was on peer mediation there was no problems so I went over to a year 3 and said Would you like to play some Football with your friends and he said sure thanks for asking. Whenever anyone is on peer mediation we make sure we start games so people can interact with each other and socialise.

What would you do if someone's on their own?

Winter Sport

Hello everyone hope you are having a nice day today.
Today I will be talking about winter sport.
I was so excited for winter sport and I still am. I have enjoyed winter sport so much because for I'm doing football/soccer and so far our team has done all right. We have won 4-1 but then lost 6-1.
So I guess our team just needs to get use to each other and get to know each other.
That's what I like about winter sport because I have made so many friends.
On Thursdays we play a match against another school team but if you have a bye (when you have got no one to play) you will normally just do a big training with your team and most likely with your coach as well.

What is your favourite sport?
