Teamwork is the ability to work with others to reach a common goal. In Grade 6, students learn how cooperation, respect, and communication build stronger groups both in school and beyond. Through inquiry learning, they explore how roles, responsibilities, and collaboration affect success. Instead of only completing tasks alone, they engage in group projects, games, and discussions that highlight the value of shared effort. By reflecting on strengths, challenges, and problem-solving, Teamwork becomes more than helping, it becomes preparation for leadership, community, and lifelong success.
