CITW Strategies 2

      First strategy is Cues, Questions and Organizers. I think this strategy is important because it helps students access their prior knowledge and use it to help them learn new things. I think the purpose of asking students cues and questions give you a chance to see what the students really learned. The goal of this strategy is to help students achieve the learning objectives. So, in order to achieve this goal ask questions that the students should know about the topic.
     Second strategy is Non-linguistic Representation. This strategy is important because it helps students use imagery. Student will be able to use visual image processing. which helps them construct meaning of relevant content and skills and have a better capacity to recall it later. Using this strategy, helps students enhance their achievement. Non-linguistic representation has many ways of being used. There are:
• Use graphic organizers.
• Make physical models or manipulatives.
• Generate mental pictures.
• Create pictures, illustrations, and pictographs.
• Engage in kinesthetic activities.
Using these practices in your classroom, can help students build memory and learn how to use their visual imagery skills.
     The last strategy is Cooperative Learning. This strategy is important because it provides opportunities for students to interact in ways that enhance and deepen their learning. This strategy encourages communications and mutual reasoning. I think the best way to help students in cooperative learning is to put them in groups. i think that'll help students learn more. Use these 3 practices and cooperative learning will take place.

• Include elements of both positive interdependence and individual
accountability.
• Keep group size small.
• Use cooperative learning consistently and systematically.
Cooperative learning helps students retain what they learn. Cooperative learning also increases motivation for learning because students establish a sense of obligation to one another and a strong kinship with their peers that leads to greater buy-in, motivation, and increased achievement.
