I was able to recognise my communication abilities&#8217; strengths as a result of this event. But, as I tried to maintain the activity on schedule, I also recognised that I need to improve my time-management abilities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LO:2\u00c2\u00a0 Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills in the process.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The participants had various levels of communicative confidence and came from a variety of backgrounds. I had to modify my leadership approach in order to overcome these difficulties, which allowed me to learn fresh abilities like creativity and problem-solving. I could detect a clear improvement in the participants&#8217; collaboration and communication abilities by the end of the session.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LO:5\u00c2\u00a0Demonstrate the skills and recognize the benefits of working collaboratively.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The goal of the Walking on Strips activity was to encourage cooperation and teamwork among the participants. I had to lead the group in encouraging cooperation and coming up with original solutions to the problems presented in the exercise. From this experience, I became aware of the advantages of teamwork, including enhanced communication, shared learning, and a feeling of success.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7791\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/ss-bal-mela-208x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"208\" height=\"300\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7729\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cauicbewifbweivbweiybyifvbw-300x224.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7995\" src=\"https:\/\/classof2024.fountainheadschools.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/4BB91424-BB0F-4A3B-A877-FA9B278D1FB1-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had the chance to take part in a Bal Mela, a youth event put on by my school.
