Why is it important to share and listen when working with book partners?

• Our brains know when we're working together and that's important

• It's only important that we listen because our brain grows in a certain way.

• If we talk our brains may or may not grow, so we should do more listening.

• Our brains grow in one way when we talk and another way when we listen - both are important .
