Here there are two examples of cooperative activities I will include in my sense unit.

Class organization
Students will be organized in 5 different groups. Each group will be working in one sense:
hearing,taste,sight,smellandtouch.
Specificcooperative learning technique used
This activity incorporates different cooperative learning techniques, but the most important is
the Jigsaw technic.
Task explanation
The activity in groups consists on creating a poster about their sense. For that, first day will
work with their team, looking for images on internet, basically, but they will also have the
possibility to look for them in magazines. They will also be using online dictionaries to resolve
theirdifficultieswiththe language. The resultshouldbe somethinglike that:
After each group have completed their own poster, we will create new groups with an expert
of each sense (using Jigsaw technique). They will need to share the important information with
their classmates about their expert sense. In order to help them to communicate themselves,
the teacher will provide a chart where will be the questions they need to ask each other and
the oral answers they will need to say (choosing from different options) and the chart to be
completed bythe children(see the material inthe followingpage).
These might
be the
words they
will need to
look for in
the online
dictionary.
They will
need to use
the

we have
worked on
through the
