1. Provide a SPECIFIC example of when you or a member of your group struggled to communicate effectively, with empathy, or appropriately. Make sure to include:
a. What led to that situation of miscommunication
b. How you felt when the miscommunication happened
c. How that miscommunication should have been handled instead
2. Explain how poor communication let your team down. Make sure to include:
a. What was your team goal
b. What did you achieve in comparison to your team goal
We were sitting around and I was drilling and I asked my partner to grab more wood but in a really hostile tone so he got mad and walked out. I should have spoken to him in a more calm voice and I should have worded it better rather than saying, “Get the wood now”. I let my team down because we were short one person then because I made one of them mad and go for a walk. Our goal was to finish the broken wall because we were behind because one of our boards was broken so we had to work on putting it together. The outcome was that one group member was mad and we had to wait for him to get back because he is a valuable person to our group.
3. Describe one positive example of communication you witnessed/did yesterday during class. Make sure to include:
a. What was the situation
b. How did it feel different
c. What the outcome of that communication was
A positive conversation we had was deciding roles for putting together the last board. I asked Yosef to do the pilot holes and then after I could hammer all of the carriage bolts in and then we could all do the nuts and washers together. It was very different because everything went very smoothly because we already had a plan laid out in front of us. The outcome was that we got the board done much faster.

1. You spent time reflection on past blog posts (looking at your strengths and weaknesses).
Describe the value, using a specific example from your blog post, of looking back and reflecting on our work
-I think I was really strong on adding pictures because I always post pictures in my blog post
2. We started to build our walls. What would you have done differently during the process and WHY? Explain what you did and how your fix would have made it better
We could have put everything in memorable spots because everything kept being stolen from us and we also lost a lot of things like our hammer and 3 bolts. The project would have gone 10x faster if we were able to just know where everything was.

1. Describe a situation when you collaborated well with your group yesterday (make sure to set the scene: what were you doing, what happened, how did you feel).

I collaborated well when we were looking for plywood in Restore by bringing the wood out and then Shira and I would measure it and Yosef would bring it to the cart. It was hard to work in the group for me though because I am not very good at working in groups because I generally work independently.

2. Provide a specific example of a time when you did not collaborate well with your group yesterday (make sure to set the scene: what were you doing, what happened, how did you feel).
I was yelling a lot on the bus because people were putting the wood in the bus way too fast and it was stressing me out and I should’ve just taken a break.

3. For your specific example of your struggles, how would you change your behavior/actions next time so as to do better. Be specific on what you would do.
I would try to take breaks often because it was a very stressful day and I really needed time to just regain my happy thoughts.

4. Explain how well you planned (what you need to buy and how much) and executed that plan (actually did what you said you were going to do).
I think we planned poorly because there wasn’t the stuff we thought there would be like I thought there would be 5 inch nails at Lowes so I spent a very long time looking for the nails but it turned out there were none so we had to get 6 inch nails.

Include at least 2 photos from yesterday, with a description for each photo (ex: where were you, what were you doing, what did you feel at that time)

This is Yosef and I helping other groups in Lowes

This is just a random picture of everyone working.
