The article explains how children behave with eachother in groups together. It sets up a little small test group to see how well the kids work together and what their behind is like with each other. One group is their interaction on something they already know how to do vs something they don't know how to do. Which is the other group. Then they did the test as all the kids were in the same class together and recorded what they saw happened between the kids. It turns out that the ones in the trained group knew how to do everything and performed better but they actually helped the ones in the untrained group. So the trained group did a lot better and behavior and interaction was better then the other group who didn't know how to do the task they were given at the beginning.

That summary was included in my groups / class research project. We gave a presentation to other classes to inform them of the information. It was really interesting to hear what other peers had to say about the topic and some of the topics that's they covered. I was actually quite surprised at some of the things they were saying. For example one group talked about a student who actually came here and his life / background story . It was interesting Bc you wouldn't even think he went through anything like that. All in all , I enjoyed the whole presentations and who actually like to even learn alittle more about some of the other topics that were given.
