The “WHAT”
Collaborative Reasoning is…
“a forum for children to think and talk out loud…to help internalize a schema for argument” and, although it improves comprehension, its goal is to “promote growth in students’ abilities to engage in reasoned argumentation” (Clark et al., 2003, p. 586)

The “HOW”: Teacher Steps
1. The teacher poses a central question concerning a dilemma faced by a character in the story or a central issue in the text.
2. Students freely explain their positions on the central question.
3. They expand on their ideas, adding reasons and supporting evidence from the story and everyday experience.
4. They challenge each other’s thinking and ways of reasoning.
5. At the end of the discussion, a final poll is taken to see where everyone stands.
6. Finally the teacher and students review the discussion and makes suggestions on how to improve future discussions.

The “HOW”: Teacher’s Instructional Moves
Instructional Move Example
Prompting “Do you have any evidence for that?”
Modeling “When I’m thinking about the reasons for myposition, I ask myself ‘What am I assuming if I say this is a good reason: (example)’?”
Asking for Clarification
“How is that different that what John Doe said?”
Challenging “Some people would say (reason from the opposing side). How would you respond to that?”
Encouraging “That was an excellent counterargument.”
Summing Up “So far, we’ve heard four arguments for why Kelly should leave. Which of those do you think are really strong, and which are not as strong?”
Fostering Independence
(nothing); instead of asking questions, restate ideas and attach students’ names
