Kagan's+Cooperative+Learning+&amp;+More+Student+Discourse+Strategies

=== October 23rd in Staff Development, we discussed the characteristics and benefits of cooperative learning/ team work, with a focus on the benefits of teams of four. Careful planning of teams could lead to more reciprocal teaching between students. ===

Please comment on any of these strategies that you have tried. What worked and what suggestions/ reflections would you like to share with us?
