Students complete group projects with assigned roles that encourage them to work together to problem-solve.

I try not to talk to a lot and let the students work together to form ideas. ]]> 2017-11-07 17:43:41 UTC https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487599 https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487619 - Discuss common misconceptions from our practice quizzes

- Present a problem on the board and have students analyze if the solution is correct or incorrect in groups.  Group must come to a consensus

- Have "teaching groups" where groups of students take one section within the unit to be responsible for. Spend a few days in class "researching" their topic. Then each group is assigned a day to teach one day. This will be our unit! Teaching each other! ]]> 2017-11-07 17:43:43 UTC https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487619 https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487635 Students explaining to one another the process to figure out a math problem.]]> 2017-11-07 17:43:44 UTC https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487635 https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487703 Students share methods for solving problems.

Students ask questions of each other and the teacher.

Students share things about their day or personal interests.]]> 2017-11-07 17:43:51 UTC https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487703 https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487725 Today in my current events class I had students do small debates one vs one with a third student moderating/facilitating the discussion. It had mixed result but most groups had decent meaningful discussions for around 10-15 minutes without me doing anything except walking around.]]> 2017-11-07 17:43:54 UTC https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204487725 https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204489074 In the science classroom, student talk can look like sharing/discussing predictions or lab results. It can look like group members reading and interpreting a lab procedure and then discussing that procedure as a group. Student talk can involve the students presenting projects and becoming "experts".

Sometimes, student talk also occurs when one student is helping another with the topic during homework or notes. At the beginning of the year, I was working towards the students working in groups and having a lot more discussions but ran into problems with the students not talking about the prompt or not talking at all, just agreeing with the "smart" student. I became very worried that my students weren't learning the material with this method and therefore, gave up too quickly. I would like to try it again but am worried. ]]> 2017-11-07 17:46:17 UTC https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204489123 https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204489154 Student teaching the class

After sharing good news together, students have time to share out their bellringer daily and each student (ideally) shares.

I also teach in micro lectures (2-3 minutes) and then have students turn to a partner and reteach what I've just taught in their own words. ]]> 2017-11-07 17:46:23 UTC https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204489201 https://padlet.com/horner/ox28cexhpx4p/wish/204489754 Everyday I give my students time to talk. During connections! I feel this is a great way to have students voices heard but also work on speaking and listening skills through PVLEGS.
