Get ready to row some boats.... Post

Throughout the past few days we have experienced challenges as a group and or individual. We have also been there to celebrate group success and individual accomplishments. Those were easyto see.... Example ( making it through a high ropes climb, beating a time with cracking the code, or going down a water slide that may not be considered fun) but today when you are all in a boat ... The only struggle that will be easy to see is if the boat is able to row or not.
 Part one:Individually though people may be having their own struggles, how can we best support each other. What does it look like to coach, support or encourage when we all may be struggling. 
Part two: how do we celebrate growth when it is not apparent? 
Part 3: rowing a boat can be frustrating and exhilarating all at the same time.... Describe a time in which you felt like you were challenged yet happy you did it too. Share that story.... We will use those stories to fuel our boats today :)

  8. Part 1: A good way to support and encourage someone is to cheer them on, and tell them that they're doing a great job.

    Part 2: You can tell someone that they're doing a great job. (Support them)

    Par 3: I sometimes go kayaking. My arms get tired from paddling after a while. My friends/family help me out by taking turns rowing the kayak. I felt good that they helped me out. (Moral support)

  11. Part 1: To coach, support and encourage when we are struggling looks like cheering encouragement, saying "you can do it!" and suggesting things to make it easier.

    Part 2: We celebrate growth when it is not apparent by congratulating people for doing things well (or even trying), even if we didn't complete our goal.

    Part 3: Yesterday, I was challenged with the water-slide, because I didn't want to do it. I was exhilarated when I finally did it. (Even if I thought I was going to throw up halfway through).

  27. part one: we can help each other by throwing out ideas that would help our teamwork of rowing the boat. we can support each other by telling the strengths they had, and how they worked well.

    part two: in the adventure race my team and i were struggling with doing the wheel barrow, and we ended up coming in last place. at the end we realized halfway during the wheelbarrow we went faster since we had hope in yourself. we were proud to have hope in ourselves which exampled growth since we went faster. even though we came in last, we knew we grew. we were happy.

    part 3: before i did the rope course, i felt freaked out and i thought i was going to die. but after i did i felt like i can do anything in life. i was so happy. im so glad i did it, or else i would never experience that feeling.

    XD

  28. Part 2: You congratulate them and ask how they accomplished it.

  29. part one: you should encourage them to keep trying and give them pointers and advice to help them conquer their struggles. to coach someone you should try to push them out of their comfort zone, but let them know it is okay if they can't do it.

    part two: if you notice that someone achieves growth and it is not recognized you should high five or say great job to them, but make sure that they feel recognized and that they accomplished something great.

    part 3: last year I did Leading For Life camp and we were doing the jebee lunge rope course, and the first time I tried it I couldn't finish the course but I tried again and made it all the way to the end. I felt really happy and accomplished that I did it after that.

  30. PART 2: We ask them if they thought there was growth, and if they admit then we give compliments.

  31. part 2: you can tell people they did great and looked like they had done it 1 thousand times

  32. Part 3: When I was in Hawaii, my family and I went biking down a dormant volcano. Going zigzag up the mountain rode made me feel sick to my stomach and I was wondering how I was going to bike down it! Making it one forth of the way down the mountain, it started to pour rain and I already was having trouble with my bike brakes. The rain added up to the fear of me riding down the steep roads of the mountain even more (my brakes didnt work at all, I was soaking wet, I was scared I would crash into a car, and I couldn't see in midst of the rain). Out of all of that I was so proud of myself when I reached the bottom. Nobody would think that an 8 year old could do all of that and I am so happy I did that every time i look back to that moment.

  34. PART 3- Last year during spring break I went diving for the first time. I was really scared to jump off the boat. But once I did I saw the most amazing things and once I came back up I asked my mom if we could go next year.

  35. PART 3: For one of the challenges we had which was cracking the code, I felt very stressed and thought that I was the one that was doing messing up since I went first. But after we got one of the best times, I felt so happy that I was there to help the group.
