TEAMWORK

Spending 6 hours per week in class, organizing power point assignments, studying at the library, putting together projects, cramming for finals were ways in which I bonded with my classmates at Humphrey's College. We were a tight knit group who worked well together, who studied together, stressed together, cried together, put some of the BEST assignments/projects on our journey to receiving our Bachelor's Degree. Many of us even worked together as we began our journey to becoming Preschool Teacher's for Stockton Unified School District. 

HIERECHY- It was clear that those who had been teacher's would be more knowledgeable, wise, and would know  the basics when it came to State Regulations, lesson planning, and even theories. However us (me included) newbies, were respected for our opinions and often consulted when it came to "Play in the Class". At first some of the wise teachers took charge and would make sure who was assigned to specific parts of the group assignments but as time went by each of us had a turn to Lead the group.

SAYING GOOD-BYE-This was probably the most difficult time for me personally to say bye, attending school, staying busy, and keeping my brain challenged made it hard for me when Graduating. Not to mention the AWESOME friendships I made. Prior to our last class of the quarter we had a GOOD-BYE dinner. To this day I have remained friends with my classmates from Humphrey's College in fact we still even work together.

ADJOURNING FROM WALDEN -"to evaluate what happened and capture lessons learned for future projects",(Abudi, 2010). When my Walden Journey comes to an end I would love to correspond with my classmates regarding our assignments and projects so I will be able to always refer back to my research. In my opinion adjourning is essential so that the group will have closure, will be able to connect in the future, and will be able to learn from the experiences when being part of a team.
