Collaborative Learning


I believe that collaborative learning does support literacy. When children work together they can help each other learn. There are many collaborative learning activities that students can work on which can help them become better learners. Reading and writing with peers can help each other interact and learn new things. By working in peers the students can benefit from each other’s ideas. Working in groups has always been my favorite activity. I like how other student’s ideas can help you understand the concept of the activity or material.
In class, when we work in groups it gives a chance for interaction and choice. I believe when we did Reciprocal Teaching the other day in class it was very beneficial. When I had a hard time thinking of what to predict the other students gave me their opinions and examples that helped me understand more. There are many elements that can help enhance a student’s performance inside the classroom.
