Reciprocal Teaching

This term we began our Reciprocal Teaching program. It has been really interesting seeing how quickly the children have adapted the system and are now using thumbs up when answering any questions during group teaching time regardless of the subject. My level 3 group has run with the system and could easily run the session independently, they are loving sharing what they know and researching the parked clarifications afterwards. The level 2 group has the ability to run the session independently but is still working on managing themselves when I am not with them. I anticipate the level 2 and 3 readers making the most gains from this program. The two level one groups are enjoying the process but I am not sure they will make the same gains, but we will see.
