Our class reflected on their learning strengths and needs. Then students worked independently to draft some tentative New Year's resolutions. We'll revise and refine them soon. Here is a sample:
Get good at being a team.
Get better at working as a group.
Cooperate and work together.
Don't do anything mean.
Stop the fighting and the exclusive clubs.
Don't get mad at each other. Just let go.
No talking (or whispering) about others.
Think before saying anything hurtful and stop it before it comes out.
Listen to the teacher and don't play with things on your desk.
Listen better. Pay attention.
Be quiet so others can concentrate more.
Work quietly. Don't talk to friends during work times.
