Students need many opportunities to talk in a linguistically rich environment. Researchers have found that students' leanung is enhanced when they have many opportunities to elaborate on ideas through talk (Pressley 1992).
The think, pair, share strategy increases the kinds of personal communications that are necessary for students to internally process, organize, and retain ideas (Pimm 1987).
In sharing their ideas, students take ownership of their learning and negotiate meanings rather than rely solely on the teacher's authority (Cobb et al. 1991).
Additional benefitss of -using the think, pair, share strategy include the positive changes in students' self-esteem thai occur when they listen to one another and respect others' ideas. Students have the opportunity to learn. Lugher level flunking skills from their peers, gain the extra time or prompting they may need, and gain confidence when reporting ideas to the whole Gass. In addition, the "pair' step of the "strategy ensures that no student is left out of the discussion. Even a student who is uncomfortable discussing his or her ideas with the whole Gass still has an audience in this step. Finally, while the strategy may appear to be time-consuming, it makes classroom discussions
More productive, as students have already had an opportunity to think about their ideas before plunging into whole-class conversations.
