Motus dice How much do your classmates know?

In this group activity we propose that you try to find out what your team knows about this topic.

When we work in a group, we also learn as a team.

There are colleagues who remember a lot of things, others who speak very well, others who are very skilled when writing, others can find the information easily, etc.

We all have superpowers to solve activities, but when we combine them, we learn together and we are able to solve any challenge.

That's why it's important that your team follows these tips:

- Everything one person knows is shared with others.

- We collaborate on tasks to make the team work.

- We value each person's superpowers.

- We respect what each person brings to the team.
