3 Tips for Better Peer Feedback in Elementary Classrooms

When young students have chances to share ideas and improve on their work with classmates, they begin to take ownership of their learning in new ways.

Learning how to exchange feedback with classmates can be intimidating—especially for younger learners who may be new to peer review. But creating space for students to give and receive better peer feedback from one another provides them opportunities to have their voice be heard and to listen to one another, resulting in a deeper level of classroom collaboration and engagement with content, and ultimately higher-quality student work. With the right scaffolding, teachers can help build autonomy and communication skills in a variety of ways.
