Coyotes, Nov 3

Since this a group that has never been together, we are noticing the group dynamics of 'forming, storming, norming, performing' (see https://www.mindtools.com/pages/article/newLDR_86.htm ). The group was able to see our Capture the Flag game last week as a 'storming' moment, which perhaps led us to a wonderful 'performing' challenge (the Nitro Crossing - ask your child how the pumpkin got across!) and some 'norming' time (carving, rope swinging, Meeple making). At this age, we can do a lot of reflecting on now just ourselves, but ourselves as an organism. We are excited to start to build some vocabulary around this!

Connection Questions:

How did the team brainstorm to help the group get across the minefield with the rope?

What is a tri-stick?

Who is your Meeple, and why?
