11 Pull your own weight—everyone participates equally. Focus & stay on task. Everybody does the work together, but each person writes it in their own notebook. No one’s done until everyone’s done. Do your HW so that you are prepared to discuss with your group.

12 Listen before speaking. Everyone takes turns and gets equal time to talk. You must ask for help if you don’t understand. You must help someone if they ask a question. Don’t criticize or put someone down—even if you’re joking. Help other group members without doing their work for them. (Don’t write on a classmate’s paper—you can show them your paper, but let them write for themselves!) Before insisting that you are right, listen—truly listen—to others’ ideas. No talking or interaction with students outside of your group.

13 Answers aren’t as important as understanding. Question each other. Explain your thinking. There are many correct ways to solve a problem. If you have a question, see if anyone else knows the answer. If not, have the spy call the teacher over. Learning takes time (i.e. I don’t get it… YET!!!)

14 Have one of the group roles make sure that the group norms are being followed. Fulfill the duties of your role in the group. Everybody cleans up. Keep the desks clear of extraneous stuff to make it easier to see and focus during idea parties.
