Trimester One- Charger Trail Reflection

Natasha Sachar

I was successful as both a friend and a team member while participating in the Charger Trails challenges today for many reasons.  First of all being part of a team means sharing your ideas, listening to others, and coming up with great things by putting the team’s heads and skills together.  Today in the Charger Trails activities, one way I contributed as a team member was during the marble activity.  I contributed by sharing my ideas on how to get the marble into the cup.  After I shared my ideas, other team members thought about what I said and added on to it.  So, successfully as a team we got the marble into the cup.  Another way I was successful as a team member was during the “hog call” activity.  I was successful as a team member during that challenge because I acted out what words other people had on their chair so they would know who to be paired up with.  Also in that activity I contributed because I had an idea of writing peoples words on a white board.  During the maze challenge I was again successful as a team member because I pointed to where a team member should go to complete the maze correctly.  I feel that with the many activities we have done as an advisory team, they have made us a strong team.  We have found out that different people are good leaders at different times.  We have also realized that a team works more successfully together when everyone is involved.
