THINK PAIR SHARE

 

The think-pair-share strategy is a cooperative learning technique that encourages individual participation and is applicable for all grade levels and classes sizes. Students think through questions using three steps:

1. Think: Students think independently about the question that has been posed, forming ideas of their own
2. Pair: Students are grouped in pairs to discuss their thoughts. This step allows students to exchanges their ideas and to consider those of other.
3. Share: Student pairs share their ideas in a larger group, such as the whole class. It may the students are more comfortable presenting ideas to a group with support by a partner.

 

The function of Think-Pair-Share strategy:

 

1. It may help the students to have opportunity talk in a linguistically rich environment. Researchers have found that student’ learning is enhanced when they have many opportunities to elaborate on ideas through talk (Pressley 1992).
2. It may increases the kinds of personal communications that are necessary for students internally process, organize and retain ideas (Pimm 1987).
3. It will helpful to set a time limit for think and pair steps of strategy.

 

Therefore, apply this strategy in your teaching to make your students’ have many opportunities and think fast

 

SQ3R

Survey-Question-Read-Recite-Review

 

SQ3R is a strategy that helps students to read fast while thinking about the text that they are read in that time.

There are five steps:

1. Survey: students review the text to gain initial meaning from the reading.
2. Question: students try to generate questions about their reading.
3. Read: while students read the text, they should look for the answers to the question.
4. Recite: they should recite or rehearse their answers to their questions and making note.
5. Review: after reading students should review their answers that they have previously done.
