 Sabrina and Cayla were working on a group project about frogs together. They needed to make a poster all about frogs. Sabrina kept bossing Cayla around and wouldn’t listen to Cayla’s ideas. Although Cayla and Sabrina were friends, Cayla was getting really mad. Cayla spent all night coloring pictures of tree frogs, but Sabrina wouldn't let her put it on the poster. How do you think Cayla felt? What could Cayla say to Sabrina? How would you help them collaborate successfully?
