I made a poster out of this and have it hanging in each classroom that I teach. 


The Importance of Collaboration

 

We remember . . .

 

  • 10 percent of what we read
  • 20 percent of what we hear
  • 30 percent of what we see
  • 50 percent of what we both see and hear
  • 70 percent of what we talk about with others

Thus, the act of collaboration itself raises the reading comprehension of every student in this class.  Let’s collaborate!!
