| Cooperative
games provide children with the opportunity to: • Build Trust • Develop Communication Skills • Develop Team Work • Develop a Higher Level of Learning The following cooperative games can be used with people of all ages, but on this site they are geared for use with elementary school aged children. Remember to give children a few minutes to strategize with their teammates after they have heard the explanation of the game. After
completing each game, get everyone together to reflect on the game. Ask
the children what they found difficult or easy, and what they would do
differently the next time they played the game. |

Don’t
Quit Don’t quit when the tide is lowest For it’s just about to turn, Don’t quit over doubts or questions, For there is something you may learn. Don’t quit when the night is the darkest, For it’s just awhile ‘til dawn; Don’t quit when you’ve run the farthest, For the race is almost won. Don’t quit when the hill is the steepest, For your goal is almost nigh; Don’t quit, for you’re not a failure Until you fail to try. |
