Partnering with someone new may be daunting. Here a lesson encourages young peers to work collaboratively in physical activity settings. Following a whole-class discussion, scholars participate in several cooperative activities that challenge them to locate a new partner with each game. An exit ticket allows pupils to reflect on the learning experience.
