COLLABORATIONWhat’s in it for students?
When we work together, we cutthe teacher-student ration in half.
Best Practices• Skills are internalized when students apply
them in the context of authentic experiences.
• Information is more easily understood and retained when students get to “play” with it.
• Meaningful work is found at the higher levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
The Common CoreEnglish Language Arts Standards
“The Common Core asks students to read stories and literature, as well as more complex texts that provide facts and background knowledge in areas such as science and social studies.
Students will be challenged and asked questions that push them to refer back to what they’ve read.
This stresses critical-thinking, problem-solving, and analytical skills that are required for success in college, career, and life.”
