I teach grades 3 and 4 learning support. When I work with a small group, we use more of a whisper or quiet voice with whisper oh yeah's and mighty groans. I also keep a portable scoreboard ( usually a post it note) and keep track as we go. I also award smiley's and frownies to my groups working independently to try to keep them on task. Sometimes, I have instructional aids with small groups and they will use portables as well. At the end of class we combine all of the post its and put the points on the actual scoreboard. It is explained to the students that even though we are working in small groups, we are still a team and must help each other. I hope this helps.<br /><br />Rebecca<br />www.mrscrookswbt.blogspot.comRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01841546323526966656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8033265258813251070.post-43013244445971206332012-05-29T19:26:13.909-07:002012-05-29T19:26:13.909-07:00Kelli,
