PLTS Designs lesson 5
For this lesson I conducted a Team Work activity that incorporates the last 2 PLTS Skills: Team Worker and Effective Participator, whilst focusing on a christmas theme!
Activity: Teams of 3. Equipment; a packet of jelly babies and a packet of jelly babies for each team.
Each team member is assigned a role:
person 1; responsible for colour co- ordination
person 2; responsible for structure
person 3; team leader / negotiator.
Task: Create a christmas themed sculpture. (prize for the best.)
This worked out really well, and was lots of fun. The results included a 3 dimensional xmas tree, a santa carrying a giant sack of jelly babies, and a pinnochio shooting an arrow at a cross (?)(!) Afterwards each person talked about their role within the team and why they had done things like they had. They all concluded that they had needed to be effective participators for the activity to work. They also pointed out that they had been creative thinkers, the whole thing had been an independent enquiry, and they were now being reflective learners whilst talking about it. Excellent. Job done!
