"OK, class. Count off (报数)by five." 1 Sometimes, breaking into small groups lasts as long as the class
does. Other times, it signals the start of a"group project"-which means you'll be working with a few classmates
for a day, several days, or longer on an assignment (任务).
2 Most things are done with the help or ideas of other people. Group projects are great practice for high
school, college, and real life, when you will probably have a job that requires working with others. Right now,
group projects can be fun and they often allow you to do a bigger, more interesting project than you could
alone. 3
Group projects also give you a chance to get to know kids you might not know or talk with-maybe the
quiet kid in the third row, or the boy who lived down the street when you were in kindergarten. 4 For
example: working on a deadline (最后期限),staying organized, or being patient. And if you're a little nervous
talking in front of a group, a joint (联合的) project can help you become more comfortable with it.
5 If so, you'll know your whole group is rooting for you!
A. Few of us act alone in the real world.
B. Why is this type of project so popular in school?
C. With group work, you can actually learn more in less time.
D. Maybe your group will pick you to tell the whole class about your project.
E. Group projects are also a great way to practice skills you're not so sure of.
F. When your teacher gives you that instruction, you know what's coming next.
G. One key to a good meeting is having a leader, who should help the group stay focused.
