Writing and Co-operative Learning and Robert Burns
Here, the children are working and supporting each other, as each person in each group individually takes turns, to write down a word that begins with their groups letters: R. O. B. E. R. T. B.U.R.N.S.
This gave the class a selection of words that could help them begin each line of their Robert Burns, Acrostic Poem.
