I am a fifth grade teacher. I use cooperative learning in the classroom but am looking at other opinions on cooperative learning from other professionals. Any feedback is welcome!

For me, this has always been a viable way to work with students. I use Karl Kagans' Tribe model. My studnets seem to like it! After all it prepars them for work as a team member in the real world. I have worked with students from grade 4 - 12 and have used the concepts all thoughout those grades.
What is Karl Kagan's Tribe Method?
Oh too funny! I have been using the TRIBE method for 10 years and SPENCER Kagan's cooperative learning practices equally for 10 years. My response to you blended both practices. I had to go to my library to give you the information you want! The book I use for Kagan's practices you can find at: http://www.kaganonline.com/google/cooperative_learning/

His website is wonderful! Enjoy reading about it!


T.R.I.B.E.S. is a process that creates a culture that maximizes learning and human development by Jeanne Gibbs. You can find about it at: http://www.tribes.com/about/

The book I use can be found at: http://www.amazon.com/Reaching-Creating-Tribes-Learning-Communities...

Hope this helps!!!!
Thank you! I will have to check it out.
