Teamwork Worksheet: Team Communication
Leader's tip (Clear, early, kind): Good: clear short updates, asking when unsure, one group chat for plans, saying “I need help”, sharing bad news early. Poor: ignoring messages, rumours and gossip, last-minute surprises, rude replies, silence about problems. A member not helping? 1) talk privately and ask if all is well, 2) explain the task again or match it to their strengths, 3) if still stuck, ask the teacher to help — never shame them in the group chat.
