The Little Engine that Could Retold By: Watty Piper A Platt and Munk Classic Presentation By: Marc Roche
An engine that was carrying toys for little boys and girls on the other side of the mountain broke down • They asked other trains that passed by to help pull the train over the mountain, but they were all too pompous to do so • Finally Ol’ Blue Train come and saves the day • He thinks he can, and well I don’t want to ruin the story for you Summary
Chug, chug, chug • Puff, puff, puff • Ding-dong, ding-dong • I am very little, but I think I can- Ol’ Blue Quotes
Forming- When train broke down and the toys need to find a train bring them over the mountain • Storming- The pompous trains wouldn’t help them get over the mountain • Norming- Ol’ Blue helps them get going over the mountain • Performing- Ol’ Blue gets them over the mountain • Adjourning- Toys get sold in toy store? Pawn Shop? We never find out (something to research) Tucker Mans 5 Stages (Tuckman)
Toys= Coordinators, Orienteer/Summarizers, Big Followers (rely completely on train) • Blockers= Shiny new engine, Freight Train, Busted down old train, Mountain • Ol’ Blue= Energizer, Harmonizer,Dominator (takes over with long monologues and controls the toys fate) Functional Roles of Groups
Toys posed with new task (find a new train, or someone who will pull the train) • Conflict erupts into chaos when no train will come help them • No leader emerges until Ol’ Blue comes to save day • We will never know what those toys would’ve done if Ol’ Blue didn’t come, but the path they were on was dangerous Conflict resolution
Toys are a group when the train breaks down (working Group) • Try to come together to fix train, others try to convince other trains to come help (Pseudo-Team) • When Ol’ Blue comes to save them they have potential (Potential Team) • They get over the mountain (Real Team) Team Building
A lot of good feedback is given throughout • Ex: “I think I can”- Ol’ Blue • Bad feedback: “I am a Passenger Engine. I only carry fine big trains. I pull you? Indeed not!”- Mean Shiny train • Ugly Feedback: “I am a Freight Engine… I won’t pull the likes of you!”- Even Meaner Freight Train 360 Feedback, The good the bad the ugly
Big into weddings and stuff • Family vacations • Never giving up spirit • (I’m Irish) Roche Family Me and Adam doing our best Train impression
