Solving Problems in a Group

What are we learning today?

You will learn how to work with your classmates. You will speak, listen and find one answer together.

Explanation

• A group has a task.
• Everyone speaks. Everyone listens.
• One student writes the answer.
• The group finds one answer together.
• Use useful phrases: I think ...; What do you think?; Let's ...; Is it ...?; Yes, you're right.; I agree.; I don't agree.

Examples

1. Let's put the shark in water animals.
2. I think it's a wild animal, too.
3. We draw angles with these. - Is it a set square?

Remember!

• Every student speaks.
• Ask the group before you write the answer.
• Do not only say "No". Give a reason or a new idea.

Check yourself
