More Instruction: • Different approach • More time with the same approach
Give one, Get one • Have students write down three things they learned today on separate index cards. • They go around the room and share them with others and swap one with each new person. • If it seems necessary, have them keep track of their original set on a sheet of paper and then try to “get rid” of them for three new ones. • They can mind map these, adding 4 more, as HW.
