Use your computer and define: Cooperation
A person of character works together with people regardless of how they feel about them. Cooperation takes a lot of work, but reminds us that only when we work together can we achieve both small and big goals in life. Many important things are larger than our own ability to achieve them alone. Just like having respect for others, cooperation means that if we like, dislike, or disagree with someone, we treat him or her with respect.
Discussion Questions:
- Discuss situations at home, school, athletics, and work that require cooperation
- Give specific examples
- Discuss the negative consequences of not cooperating with others in these situations
- Why is cooperation important when working with others?
- Discuss how you can overcome negative feelings towards another person and cooperate with them to accomplish a common goal.
- i.e. in athletics, at work, school
Quotes on Cooperation
- Better bend than break. (Scottish proverb)
- We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools. (Martin Luther King, Jr.)
- On this shrunken globe, men can no longer live as strangers. (Adlai Stevenson)
- When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion. (Ethiopian proverb)
- A single arrow is easily broken, but not ten in a bundle. (Japanese proverb)
