Adjourning Phase

Considering the adjourning phase and the groups that I've been involved in, there were some groups that were harder to leave than others.

If we label the 5 Steps of team development, each one of them has very important structural values. All successful group developments have considerable talents in each step.

There was a specific group that I was involved in when I was stationed in Fort Lee, Virginia. My job at the time was well informed on all instructions on the job. We worked well together, our chemistry was there, and personalities were all there as well. The best part was being able to get as much done as we did, and also have a great time doing it.

If I compare the group that I was involved in then and now, the comparisons are nonexistent. There are specifics that go into group dynamics and individuality is definitely one of them.

My Connections to Play

  • "Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning." By Fred Rogers
  • “The activities that are the easiest, cheapest, and most fun to do – such as singing, playing games, reading, storytelling, and just talking and listening – are also the best for child development.” ~ Jerome Singer (professor, Yale University)
  • “As astronauts and space travelers children puzzle over the future; as dinosaurs and princesses they unearth the past. As weather reporters and restaurant workers they make sense of reality; as monsters and gremlins they make sense of the unreal.” ~ Gretchen Owocki (childhood educator)
