Next message: Hall, Georgia: "RE: [Teacher-talkinquiry] management of group discussions"
I loved the group discussion ideas, especially the fist and fingers idea. My team-teacher and I like to use cards with each student's name on them. We shuffle in the morning, and run through the random stack, calling on whomever's name we draw. If they don't have an idea or answer, they may pass, but know that their name goes back into the stack, so
they will be called on again shortly. This sometimes motivates those who need a gentle nudge to focus and get those creative juices flowing.
