Provide Opportunities for Students To Speak To Each Other

coreroutines-cover1

In Core Instructional Routines: Go-To Structures for the 6–12 Classroom, coauthors Andrea Honigsfeld and Judy Dodge help teachers build background knowledge and literacy across subjects using Speak, Write, Read, and Listen (SWRL) routines. These create ample opportunities for creative collaboration, critical analysis, and student engagement. In today's post, Judy calls for more opportunities for students to speak to each other in classrooms.

"Speaking and listening are how students learn their language," says Judy Dodge. "Speaking and listening strengthens students' writing and reading skills, so we need to provide more opportunities for conversation."
