Teamwork Summary In English

Teamwork is very important. We can bring our dreams come true by working together. And together we can share our joys of achieving something. It is a fun to put the ball through the ring. But we cannot shoot it if there is no one to pass it on. Similarly, relay race cannot go on if nobody passes the baton. When we work together we become strong and then it is easy to achieve the common goal.

Teamwork Summary In Hindi

मिलकर काम करना बहुत महत्त्वपूर्ण है। एक साथ मिलकर काम करने से हम अपने सपने साकार कर सकते हैं। और एक साथ मिलकर किसी उद्देश्य प्राप्ति की खुशी भी आपस में बाँट सकते हैं। बास्केटबॉल को छल्ले में से फेंकना बड़ा आनंददायक होता है किन्तु यदि एक खिलाड़ी आगे दूसरे खिलाड़ी को गेंद नहीं बढ़ाए तो कोई भी उसे मार नहीं सकता। है। उसी तरह कोई भी रिले रेस में बेटन आगे नहीं बढ़ा सकता। जब हम एक साथ मिलकर काम करते हैं तो हम मजबूत बनते हैं और तब साझा उद्देश्य को प्राप्त करना आसान हो जाता है।

Together we can make our dream work.
Then we’ll share the joy of what we’ve done.

3. We’re the parts that make up the whole,
And we’ve got our eyes on a common goal.
