Cooperative Learning Lessons

Cooperative learning is usually the last lesson that is prepared for students.

This lesson is known to be fun for students. Every lesson should include a reflection from what students had learned during the following lessons. Cooperative usually begins with a short recap and then fun group activities. Students have a chance to work in groups and share ideas with each other. This is good for them so they can all hear the different ideas of their classmates. During cooperative learning you can also have a lesson where roles are assigned to students. Students like to take charge and have roles in an assignment. Cooperative learning should be mainly group work having students working together. Besides group work, there should also be independent work to make sure all students have a full understanding of the topic.
