Before we start with today's lesson, I would like to teach you a cooperative learning strategy called "Think-Pair-Share" that you may have used in other classes.

This strategy is designed to:

encourage individual participation and enhance your learning.

Have an opportunity to elaborate on ideas through talking about it with your peers.

The think, pair, share strategy increases the kinds of personal communications that are necessary for students to internally process, organize and retain ideas.

In sharing your ideas, you take ownership of your learning and negotiate meanings rather than rely solely on the teacher's authority.

There are other benefits, but I think these are the main ones. Here are two videos that further explain the strategy "Think-Pair-Share".
