  1. Whole School Literacy Tutor Work Week 2: Reciprocity Working in pairs and groups How listening to each other can develop our own learning/ goals

  2. Reciprocity – what does this mean to you? • Showing respect • Listening to someone • Making time for another person • Responding to a person

  3. What makes group work effective? Using the grid, colour code to decide: • Which are most important for group work = green • Which are quite important for group work = yellow • Red = must not do.

Self audit On a scale of 1-5 (1=low, 5=high) come up with a number for the following:- • Do I work well in a group? • Am I always doing what I have been asked when I am doing group work? • Can I listen to someone telling me something without interrupting them? • Can I respond to other people’s opinions in a constructive way? • Does everybody’s opinion count?

  6. Discuss the meaning of the following quotation “Crowds tend to be wise only if individual members act responsibility and make their own decisions. A group won’t be smart if its members imitate one another, slavishly follow fads or wait for someone to tell them what to do.” Why can working in groups and discussing ideas in groups be a really good way of learning?
