This document discusses different methods for grouping students, including whole-class teaching, individualized learning, pair work, and group work. For each method, the advantages and disadvantages are outlined. Whole-class teaching is good for explanations but some students are reluctant to participate publicly. Individualized learning addresses individual differences but lacks a sense of belonging. Pair work promotes cooperation and speaking time but can be noisy. Group work increases participation over larger groups but some students may not enjoy it. The document also provides tips on organizing and managing different grouping methods.
This is a whole class activity designed to facilitate student reflection on a project. The intent is to begin to build a student's ability to self-reflect on the learning process.

For the past few years, reading has taken center stage in PD—specifically because this is an area that has been deemed as being one that most of our students struggle with as evidenced by ISAT performance. For the past couple of years, teachers have been exposed to the concept of Reading Across the Curriculum. At first, Haugan received PD from an outside consultant and then last year, most of our PD was delivered on-site by our Master Teachers. This year, we are going full force with Reading Across the Curriculum and marrying it to the Differentiation concept—Haugan personnel will be the driving force behind the initiative; in terms of providing all PD ourselves. So far, we have delivered 4 PowerPoint presentations that have some type of literacy/differentiation element embedded into it: Ex: 1. Formative Assessment; 2. Word Maps to Build Comprehension; 3. Summarizing; and 4. Differentiation.
Differentiation ppt: We opened the year with a PD session on differentiation. Although many of our Haugan teachers have been to conferences/workshops that delve deeply into this concept, we felt that we needed to present teachers with practical techniques that they could immediately put into practice the first week of school—techniques that would help them get to know their students’ interests and learning styles. In having an idea of students’ interests and learning styles, teachers are better able to engage students.

Interaction in the second language classroomSuadaSuliman
. A great deal of time in teaching is devoted both to interaction between the teacher and the learners, and to interaction among the learners themselves. The quality of this interaction is thought to have a considerable influence on learning (Ellis 1985)

2. Whole-class teaching
Sitting in rows, listening to a teacher who stands in front of them. Teacher-
student interaction.
Advantages:
It reinforces a sense of belonging among the group members.
It is much easier for students to share an emotion.
It is suitable for activities where the teacher is acting as a controller. Good for explanations and instructions.
It is an ideal way of showing material.
It is also more cost efficient both in terms of material production and organization.
Disadvantages:
It favors the group rather than the individual.
Many students are disinclined to participate in front of the whole class since to do so brings with it the risk
of public failure.
It may not encourage students to be autonomous. It favors the transition of knowledge from teacher to
students.
3. Students on their own
Individualized learning
Advantages:
It allows teacher to respond to individual students differences.
It promotes the development of the learners' autonomy.
Disadvantages:
It does not help the class develop a sense of belonging.
It does not encourage cooperation.
It requires more thought and materials preparations than whole-class teaching involves.
4. Pair work
Students can practice language together, study a text, research language or take part in
information-gap activities.
Advantages:
It increases the amount of speaking time.
It allows students to work and interact independently without necessary guidance of the teacher, thus
promoting learners’ independence.
It allows teachers time to work with one or two pairs while the other students continue working.
It promotes cooperation and helps the classroom to become a more relaxed and friendly place.
It allows them to share responsibilities.
Relatively quick and easy to organize.
Disadvantages:
It is often really noisy.
It can often veer away from the point of an exercise. Chances of misbehavior.
Can be problematic if they have to work with someone they are not keen on.
5. Group work
We can put students in larger groups. This will allow them to do a range of tasks for which pair
work is not appropriate.
Advantage:
Small groups of five provoke grater involvement and participation rather than larger groups.
It increases the amount of talking.
Personal relationships are less problematic, there is a greater chance of different opinions and varied
contributions than in pair work.
It encourages broader skills of cooperation and negotiation than pair work.
It promotes learner’s autonomy
Disadvantages:
It is likely to be noisy.
Not all students enjoy it.
Individuals may fall into group roles that become fossilized.
Groups can take longer to organize.
6. Ringing the chances
Deciding when to put students in group or pairs, when to teach the whole class
or when to let individuals to get on with it on their own depends upon a
number of factors…
◦ The task
◦ Variety in a sequence
◦ The mood
7. Organizing pair and group work
Making it work
• Doing a group activity with students and then ask them to write or say how they feel about it.
• Ask them to list their favorite activities and compare these lists with their classmates.
When we know how our students feel about pair work or group work, we can decide what
changes of methods we need to make
Creating pairs and groups
• Friendship (observation).
• Streaming (ability/level).
• Chance (no special reason).
• Changing groups.
8. Procedures for pair and group work
Our role in pair and group work does not end when we have decided which students should work
together. We have other matters during and after the activities.
During:
◦ While students are working stand up at the front or in the side of the class and keep an eye on what's
happening. In this position we can tune in to a particular group from some distance away.
◦ Go round the class watching and listening to specific groups or pairs. Then intervene if you think it is
appropriate or necessary.
After:
o When groups stop working together we need to organize feedback, this procedure will give students
information for future learning and action.
o Sharing ideas, solutions, problems, etc., help them get a better understanding of the topic.
o Constructive feedback enhance students’ future motivation.
9. Troubleshooting
Finishing first
When we see the first group finished the task we might stop the activity for the whole class. That
removes the problem of boredom but it may be very demotivating for the students who have not
finished yet.
When planning group work it is a good idea to plan extra activity for the first-finishing groups.
Awkward groups
In order to make all participants work, we sometimes have to reorganize pairs or groups.
