2. Let the homogenous groups (5 to 6 students) plan their own project with their small teacher who I recommended according to her good achievements in the subject.

3. Give the students chance (2 to 3 weeks) to prepare for their projects.

4. Each group works collaboratively in the class to do its project and to be better than the others.

5. I go around and check their work.

6. Each group present or talk about its product.

7. I evaluate their work.

There are very specific methods to assure the success of group work, and it is essential that both teachers and students are aware of them. It is not a way for teachers to address the needs of quot;
giftedquot;
students by continually putting them in charge of learning groups. It is a way for students to learn essential interpersonal life-skills and to develop the ability to work collaboratively. It is a way for students to take turns with different roles such as facilitator, reporter, recorder, etc. In a cooperative group, every student has a specific task, everyone must be involved in the learning or project, and the success of the group depends on the successful work of every individual<br />So I’m sure if I’d taken this course at the beginning of this year my strategies would be completely different.<br />
