When students have clear partner roles, they can get to the thinking faster and go deeper with the text.
During these social studies walkthroughs in Ouachita Parish, students used partner roles to work through text-dependent questions, support their answers with evidence, and learn from each other.
With partner roles, students can divide the questions and explain their thinking to each other, or tackle a question together by finding and flagging different pieces of evidence in the text. Either way, students are accountable for the thinking and the evidence behind their answers.
That means less time answering every question alone and more time learning from each other.
