Relationships….. It's relationship, not programs that change children. A great program simply creates the environment for healthy relationships to form between adults and children. Young people thrive when adults care about them on a one-to-one level, and when they also have a sense of belonging to a caring community. Bill Milliken,Founder and Vice Chairman of Communities in Schools, author of Tough Love and The Last Dropout.
Teamwork…. “The strength of the team is each individual member...the strength of each member is the team.” - Coach Phil Jackson - Chicago Bulls
Strength Chain • Reflect on the strengths you bring to your co-teaching team. • Identify three strengths. • Write each strength on a link of the chain.
Strength Chain • Each member shares out one strength at a time and passes the chain to the next person to share their strength. • Others may add comments. • Continue until all members have shared.
