Learn About and See Kagan Cooperative Learning In Action!

Visiting teachers will participate in professional learning sessions and then visit the classrooms to see the theory and structures in action. There is also opportunity to choose which classroom and which structure you’d like to see in action. Pick a classroom that will be demonstrating structures using your content. Or pick a Kagan Structure and see it in action with the teachers and students at St Michael’s School – Bassendean. St Michael’s teachers are masters at Kagan Structures. They will share their wealth of knowledge about their Kagan Cooperative Learning journey.
