Martin's most recent reflection achievement
This week's theme in Play is 'risk analysis.' The
Hyperball trophy is up for grabs this week, and maps will feature both high-risk/high-reward opportunities and low-risk/low-reward areas. It's likely that you'll find yourself on teams with
mixed risk tolerances. So how do you decide which approach to take?

You¡¯ve been around Synthesis Teams for a while, so you know that good teamwork means more than just participating in the game and communicating with your teammates.
It involves cooperative planning, coordinating roles, and shared decision-making. It¡¯s about including everyone and checking in on progress toward the team¡¯s goals.
This month, we¡¯ll take a closer look at these important aspects of teamwork as we examine your
goal-oriented collaboration skills.
Martin, here's what we observed about your teamwork skills during the session: One thing you did really well was motivating your teammates and setting strategic plans, as seen when you enthusiastically pushed for action and organized roles with specific instructions like "Guard the teleporter!" This shows your great ability to inspire and guide others towards achieving team objectives. Another great thing we saw was your strategic planning; your comment, "I know how to win this game," shows your readiness to lead the team with a clear plan in mind. A next step could be to focus on including your teammates' suggestions more often. For example, before making decisions, you could ask, "What does everyone think about this plan?" Why is this important? Incorporating your team¡¯s ideas can help make everyone feel involved and create a stronger, more unified approach to reaching your goals. Keep up the great work, and remember that teamwork means everyone¡¯s ideas can help make the plan even better!
Observations based on your participation in Play sessions in 3 of the past 4 weeks.
On your journey to make any team you join better, you'll practice how to effectively communicate with everyone. Our Discussion sessions are carefully designed to provide opportunities for you to practice these critical communication skills in various ways.
Last week's theme was
"Fair Play." In games, 'fairness' means both teams have the same opportunity to succeed. In discussions, there are no teams. But there can still be fairness. In addition to weighing ethical dilemmas about fairness, students were tasked with working to make sure all their team members had the opportunity to contribute. After all, there should be a fair chance for everyone to share their opinions.
No right or wrong answers. Just interesting conversations with kids from around the world.
Communication in Discussions Sessions

Reflection for Martin: Does the communication in your team room show that everyone has an opportunity to speak?
Martin, here¡¯s what we noticed about your communication during last week¡¯s Discussion session: One thing you did especially well was inviting quieter teammates into the conversation, like when you asked, "Do anyone have any more ideas?" This shows how much you care about including everyone. Another great thing we saw was your ability to share interesting stories, which made the session fun and lively for everyone. To keep building your skills, you might try balancing your excitement with focus by ensuring your stories and questions are related to the main topic. This way, you can help keep the conversation flowing smoothly while still being the fun and engaging teammate you are!
Anyone who's on the path toward becoming a Supercollaborator is able to keep improving their skills and making course corrections. We look forward to seeing you at future Play + Discussion sessions, and we'll continue giving you feedback on your teamwork and communication skills.
