Broken Circles • Goal: Put pieces together in such a way that each member of your group ends up with a complete circle. • NOTE: The task is not finished until each member has a completed circle.
Rules for Broken Circle • This group work must be played in complete silence. • Each player must put together his/her own circle without receiving directions/hints from someone else. • You may give your circle pieces, one at a time, to any other group member, but do not take a circle piece from another person. • Other group members may give circle pieces to you, one at a time.
Begin With the End in Mind • What does begin with the end in mind mean? • I plan ahead and set goals for myself. I am prepared at all times. • I think about how the choices I make now will affect my future. • I think about the positive or negative consequences of my actions before I act.
Agenda Book • Tool for home/school communication • Helps to teach Responsibility • Students write down their assignments after each subject is completed • Organizational tool for students • Parents can easily see what students did in class for the day as well as any work that needs to be completed at home • Parents can write comments • Most teachers ask that the parent or guardian sign the agenda book each day
