"Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much."
— Helen Keller

Explain that there are many times when people have to work together, such as:

  • A basketball team playing together.
  • A classroom of students listening to a teacher.
  • A choir singing in harmony.

Discuss: 

  • What would happen if one person hogged the ball in a basketball game? 
  • What would happen if one person kept talking during class?
  • What would happen if one person shouted their way through a choir song?

Just as everyone has to work together to play on a basketball team or sing in a choir, everyone can pitch in to clean up a shared space.

Emphasize that you are all on the same team.

Optional Activity: Sing Improv!

If you’re up for it, try singing together to experience harmony. Invite one person to start singing a riff (such as “la la la la”) and invite each other person to join, one at a time, to form an impromptu choir. (If it sounds terrible, that’s okay — just laugh!)
