Solving Problems in a Group

What are we learning today?

You will learn how to solve a problem together in a group. You will speak, listen and choose one answer with your classmates.

Explanation

• The group has one question.
• Everybody speaks and listens.
• Together you choose one answer.
• In the top-three task, the group chooses three ideas.
• Use three steps: collect ideas, compare them, choose together.
• One person writes, but everybody speaks.

Examples

1. Good: we can find information fast. Bad: we can lose time on games.
2. Let's put "fast information" in our top three.
3. I think this is a good idea. What do you think?

Remember!

• Useful phrases: I think ... / What do you think? / Let's choose ... / I agree. / Good idea, but ...
• Do not decide alone. Listen to your group.
