Objectives:

• Getting to know teammates
• Respecting teammates
• Understanding different skills and contributions

Materials:

• Small pieces of paper (or sticky notes)
• Glue sticks (if you did not use sticky notes)
• 4 large sheets of paper

Setup:

• Leave materials on the table, Each student should be given around 2-4 sticky notes.

Instructions to Team: Write a compliment about someone else on your team. When you are done, spell out the word TEAM. Make sure everyone has a compliment - even coaches and mentors.
