Inside-Outside Circle

Inside-Outside Circle

  1. Students form two concentric circles with the same number of people in each circle. The inside circle members face out and the outside circle members face in.
  2. Individuals facing each other form pairs.
  3. The outside circle member of the pair shares a thought or a possible answer to a question while the inside circle member listens and asks probing or clarifying questions.
  4. Roles reverse.
  5. The inside circle rotates a specified number of people to the right or left and new pairs are formed.
