Assigned discussion groups of 4 or 5 (timer, scribe, reporter, mediator) will share out their responses to the stereotype questions they answered in their R.L.N.s last class Each student gets 7-10 minutes for sharing individually The group as a whole is shown a NEW set of questions. As the group moves through the list, each individual member is provided with 3 minutes to respond to each question and be heard by their group. Students return to their assigned seats and fill out their last post-it for the L and post it on the class poster before they leave.

  8. Group Activity Roles The reporter reports back to the entire class about what transpired in the group. The good, the bad, and the ugly. The scribe records and tracks the discussion of the group and turns in the notes for points. If there are 5 people in a group this task is split up into two shifts. The timer makes sure that all group members were given and used their allotted time and takes notes on how the group's time was used. The mediator is there when tough situations arise, they intervene when necessary and remind the group to take a step back, reassess, and then move forward and sometimes in a different direction.
