Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was done in order to determine if the use of Tribes activities would foster a more positive learning environment within the classroom. Data was collected from families as well as students regarding the effect of Tribes strategies had on their opinion about school. A parent and student survey was used at the beginning and end of the eight-week study. Student and Tribe assessments were used weekly for students to evaluate their participation within their Tribe. The use of personal journals was also implemented into my classroom to allow students a time to reflect on their personal life and share goals and/or accomplishments with me. The effects of the Tribes strategies in my classroom were positive. I could see positive interaction within the classroom as well as students participating in qualities team building activities.
