Stir the Classroom

Stir the Classroom

1. Have teams of 4 meet around the perimeter of the room.
2. Number off (1 to 4) in each group.
3. Have teams discuss a question or a prompt displayed on an interactive whiteboard.
4. When time is up, randomly select a number (1 to 4) to “stir the classroom.”
5. Call out the number and have the corresponding team member in each group move to the next group to share information discussed in the home group and to learn information from the new team.
6. Repeat the process with a new prompt for the newly formed teams.
7. Continue “stirring” by sending random number team members to the next group to share and receive information.
