At Bayswater Primary School children work mostly in cooperative groups. 
From P- 2 the competencies listed below refer to children’s ability to do these things either individually or with the assistance of their peers. 
At level three we believe that while the children are still working in cooperative groups,  they should begin to demonstrate individual mastery.
Students on a particular level will demonstrate mastery of the preceding levels.
