Togetherness
The essence of building a community
Chris Gonsalvez
Melissa Gonsalvez
Building our Core Covenant
As teachers we expect that you will;
Believe – Believe in yourself and in others.
Belong – Feel like you belong and welcome others.
Behave – Respect yourself, and others. Hold yourself responsible
for your own effort and hold others responsible for theirs.
If we do these things we;
Become – A Community that WALKS TOGETHER!
Character Attributes of a Lion
• You’ll be the natural leader. You’ll know what
needs to be done and how to do it. What you
might not know is that you trample on people’s
feelings. You may be hurting people who care
about you and not even realize it. Even though
you can seem very independent, lions need
loyalty and credit for their achievements.
• Lion: you can learn to be gentler by
watching Golden Retrievers
BELONG, BELIEVE, BEHAVE
The Mindset of the Lion…
• My ideal world is one where I have control.
• I like to change things.
• I want to do it my way.
• My greatest fear is losing control or not having
a challenge.
Character Attributes of a Beaver
• Beavers are orderly, practical, and do things
right. You probably make a list each day of
things to do, and if you do something that isn’t
on you list, you write it on your list so that you
can then cross it off! Others might find you a
bit stuffy and dull, but beavers just need a bit
more time and space in their relationships.
• Beaver: Team up with an Otter for a while –
he needs you to slow him down a bit, and
you need him to loosen you up.
BELONG, BELIEVE, BEHAVE
The Mindset of the Beaver…
• My ideal world is one where I have excellence
• I like to research things
• I want to do it the right way
• My greatest fear is being wrong or being
criticized
Character Attributes of an Otter
• You’ll be the one with the latest jokes. You
blend with any crowd and people tend to like
you. Sometimes people get the impression you
don’t take anything seriously. One thing you
probably take too seriously is what others think
of you: otters love applause.
• Otter: slow down, learn to listen, and learn a
few tricks from Beavers.
BELONG, BELIEVE, BEHAVE
The Mindset of the Otter
• My ideal world is one where I have fun.
• I like to dream things.
• I want to do it the exciting way.
• My greatest fear is losing face or not having
social approval.
Character attributes of a Golden Retriever
• The most loyal and sensitive of friends! You will
look after the feelings and emotions of everyone –
except your own! Golden Retrievers sometimes
get very hurt, especially by Lions, because they
sometimes let themselves be treated badly. You
need appreciation, something the rest of us often
overlook.
• Golden Retriever: stand in front of a mirror and
practice saying “NO!” You may not feel
comfortable saying it, but it is okay to say.
BELONG, BELIEVE, BEHAVE
The Mindset of the Golden Retriever
• My ideal world is one where I have peace.
• I like to watch things.
• I want to do it the easy way.
• My greatest fear is losing stability or losing a
relationship.
BELONG, BELIEVE, BEHAVE
