Peer learning  同侪互动与学习 by Samantha Ong 

Peers learning or peer teaching is not something new especially in Montessori classroom. It can traced back to Aristotle’s use of “archons” or student leaders.There are many benefit of peer teaching, not to confused with peer instruction. Direct interaction between students promotes active learning and also improved their communication skills. Students feels more comfortable and open during peers interaction and of course, students know the similar problem occur, allowing greater understanding.

It is always a joy for teachers  to observe children interacting with each othet and offering their help.

在蒙特梭利教室内，同侪学习或同伴互动并不是什么新鲜事情。

它可以追溯到亚里士多德使用“执政官”或学生领袖等概念。

同侪学习、指导与互动有很多好处，3-6岁的同学之间直接互动，促进了主动学习，并提高了沟通技巧。学生们在互动中感到更加舒适和开放，况且，学生们之间也更了解类似的问题如何发生，及解决之道，从而让他们有更多的理解、同理。

观察孩子间的互动情况并提供帮助是一件开心的事。
