Describe and Draw
Students are divided up into pairs or groups. One of the students describes a photograph without showing it to their partner who must draw an image based on this description. Asking additional
questions is allowed in order to produce a drawing true as much as possible to the original. Make the objects in the image relevant to the covered content.
Memory
This involves showing a few different items to students. The teacher gives them 60 seconds to memorise them. In smaller groups, students write down the objects they have memorised. This activity can be followed up with extra tasks, such as writing sentences about the stated objects, places where the objects can be found, etc.
Jigsaw
This activity enables students to become “experts” on some specific area of the task and share their knowledge with the rest of the class. Divide the topic into several components (“jigsaw puzzles”). Each group has a different “piece” of the topic, and, in the end, they share their knowledge with the other students. You can also collect a written report on the work of each group and assemble the real jigsaw puzzle
The advantages of pair work and small group work
Gives learners more speaking time
Changes the pace of the lesson
Takes the spotlight off you and puts it onto the children
Allows them to mix with everyone in the group
Gives them a sense of achievement when reaching a team goal
Teaches them how to lead and be led by someone other than the teacher
Allows you to monitor, move around the class and really listen to the language they are producing.
An important aspect of your university studies is the opportunity to work as part of a group. Group working is used at university because it can be an effective and powerful way to learn, and is also highly relevant to the workplace. The following points highlight the benefits of group learning:
Effective learning
Group working can make study more efficient and fun. Working with others enables you to pool your ideas and see problems from different perspectives. In a group situation, you can attempt tasks that could not be accomplished by an individual, combining a variety of skills and expertise to tackle more complex and larger scale problems. If you are working to a limited time frame, group work allows analysis to a greater depth and breadth than if you were working individually. Furthermore, group work gives you the chance to learn from each other. There are many benefits from analysing, discussing and exploring your own ideas and questions and gaining feedback from your peers.
Pair work is great for practicing model dialogues, playing games such as battleship, conducting vocabulary checks, and completing worksheets. Working in pairs gives individual students a lot of speaking time. If working together, students will often have more confidence than when completing exercises individually. If students are competing with their partners, they will be more motivated. Students can work in groups or form teams for role plays, races, games such as board games or card games, and discussions. Groups give students the opportunity to create more complex dialogues, explore relationships between characters, pool knowledge together, and have a more social learning environment. Additionally there is a better chance for self correction or peer correction and for a discussion on a wider range of thoughts and opinions with larger group sizes. On the other hand, individual speaking time is limited when working in groups. You can increase the amount of speaking time students have by decreasing the size of groups to three or four people. If you are in a large class and want all the groups to present material at the end of the lesson, larger groups may be necessary but limit group size to about six.
Both pair work and group work have a place in classes.
Using a variety of seating arrangements and groupings of students is important as it allows learners to practice different types of things. Working with others gives students the opportunity to interact with a variety of people and learn from one another. It also encourages cooperation which will help students get along in class and could reduce the number of student outbursts too.
