Team activities can teach more skills for life than those activities which are played alone. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
[shc_shortcode class=”shc_mybox”]Both teamwork and individual work require different skills and teach different things. Most
of our daily life depends on teamwork like doing a job and raising a family. Therefore, I
agree with the given statement that team activities teach more skills for life than solo
activities. In the following paragraphs, I shall support my view with my arguments.
Some important skills of life are communication skills, co-operation and conflict
management skills. All these are only learnt through teamwork. In solo activities, we do not
need to communicate and so we do not learn these skills. However, when we step into daily
life, we realise that communication skills are the most needed skills. We also have to co-
operate also with our family members, colleagues, friends and neighbours in daily life.
When we do team activities, we learn co-operation also. Conflict management skills are also
learnt when we do team activities. You have differences of opinion and you learn to manage
tough situations very diplomatically. All these are very necessary skills of life.
Furthermore, we also learn leadership skills, decision making and critical thinking skills while
doing team activities. We learn how to make our voice heard and we also learn how to
accept the correct suggestions of others. Finally, we learn sportsman-spirit which is a very
good trait. We learn to accept victory with modesty and defeat with grace. This is an
important life skill.
On the other hand, we learn many skills of life through solo activities also. We learn a sense
of competition and perseverance through individual activities. All life skills are important for
us. We cannot forget that man is a social animal and cannot live alone. So, what we learn in
teams can be applied more in our daily lives.
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying that team activities and individual activities – both
teach important skills of life but team activities are definitely better teachers of life skills
than solo activities.
