The Essential Question: How do we create a culture of synergy in our classroom?

How do we create a culture of synergy in our classroom?




Earning Badges & Totems
Camp Badges and Beads are earned by completing a variety of workshops associated with camping. Some of these badge workshops include: Chanting, Meal Preparation, rolling sleeping bags, the science of S'mores, Medic and teamwork to name a few. Students can become experts by taking an exam. Black beads are earned for passing the exam.
Totems represent 5 different qualities of respect: Respect for Adults, Friends, Property, Self, and Family. Each morning students pick a name from a hat and observe their partner throughout the day. At the end of the day, each partner celebrates a specific quality of respect that they caught their partner exhibiting.
