Brainstorming our Class Treaty

This week we in Team 17 have been learning to brainstorm in groups. Brainstorming is a thinking strategy for a group to share their brain power. Together we can come up with more creative ideas than on our own.

Below is the treaty we came up with.
We agree to respect this class treaty:
1.    I am here to learn!
2.    Teach each other
3.    Be polite
4.    Be kind
5.    Be helpful
6.    Be fair
7.    Be ready
8.    Follow teacher rules
9.    Use the Bailey Road H.E.A.R.T

There are different types of brainstorming. We have learnt Round Robin where everyone gets a turn using different coloured markers. We also learnt about 4S Brainstorming where each group member has a role to help help each other.

We are also learning to comment on blogs. This week we are focusing on:

1. Re-reading and editing our comments to check if what we wrote makes sense.
2. Check that our sentences that have correct capital letters, punctuation and spelling.

All team 17 students, please comment on this blog. Each team member must choose a role from 4S Brainstorming (Speed Captain; Synergy Guru; Super Supporter; Captain of Silly). You will explain what the person playing your role does and says.
