Rally Coach

A Collaboration Activity

This is a variation on Pair/Share but adds a coaching/teaching element

Students will benefit from testing their own knowledge, and using verbal skills to communicate

This can be done in almost any situation where students are engaging in repeated practice of a single concept (see the video below for the math example)

Procedure

I suggest watching the short video above, the video shows it all. But here it is:

To use the math example in the video, students are engaging in the repeated practice of a concept (in this case, subtraction).

• Students pair up

• Student A completes one problem while student B observes (and follows Student A's process in real-time in their mind)

• Student B then affirms Student A's answer as correct or coaches Student A showing them where they went wrong

• Switch roles for the next problem
