Teamwork Assembly!

This fun and original assembly aims to assist children in understanding the value of effective teamwork, through:

-Understanding what teamwork is and recognising why it is important (with the help of a funny, purposeful video, which is hyperlinked into the presentation);
-Looking at everyday activities and considering which require effective teamwork skills;
-Demonstrating the power of teamwork through an engaging and powerful ‘hula hoop challenge’ game;
-Understanding how and why teamwork can be important in school, and thinking about how they would use teamwork in different scenarios;
-Finding out about how teamwork has contributed to some of humankind’s greatest achievements;
-Ending with a song about using our individual talents as a part of a team.

This assembly is tried and tested, and has always been really well received in the past. It is comprehensive (24 slides in total) and the slides are visually engaging and well-presented, and the subject matter is tailored to the interests and needs of young people. For example, there are references to scenarios and dilemmas that they themselves might find themselves in order to help them to make the right choices in their own lives.

No further resources are required except a single hoop for the challenge activity - everything else that you need to present the assembly is included.

The assembly presentation is fairly self-explanatory, but I’ve included guidance notes to assist the speaker just in case. Hope that you find this useful!
