Teambuilding Activity
Analogies / Similes
Analogy – cognitive process of transferring
information or meaning from one subject to
another
Similes – a figure of speech in which two
essentially unlike things are compared,
often in a phrase constructed with “like” or
“as”
For Example…
Teaching (or taking) a
class is like opening
a can of soda – If
you don’t hear the
pop or taste the
carbonation, you will
assume it is flat.
Do Your Own!
O Each table has three props
Come up with ways that teaching is like a:
O Coffee
O Balloon
O Straw
O See if you can come up with “how teaching
is like” at least two of the three items. We
will share in 5 minutes.
Norms/Expectations
“Norms” for a training session are the equivalent
of “Classroom or Lab Expectations” that a
teacher would have for his/her students
Defined: Rules that govern individual behaviors
within a group
In a classroom there is “buy in” to the
expectations if participants have had the
opportunity to contribute to their development

Our Norms…
