Give One, Get One
We are using Give one, Get one in English to share ideas- then use them in our descriptive writing. What a fantastic way to magpie ideas.
Using Give one Get one to share knowledge of Place value- Write numbers facts for a given number.
Steps for the Strategy
1. Give each student a copy of the “Give One, Get One” worksheet (or own books).
2. Present the students with a concept or question with multiple possible answers.
3. In their teams, students brainstorm possible answers without writing them down.
4. When they agree that one of their brainstorms is a good one, they write it in the “Give One” column on their worksheets
5. Repeat steps 3-4 until the “Give One” column is full. The team then stands.
6. When all teams are standing, students raise their hands and find a new partner.
7. After finding a new partner, each student gives one idea and gets one idea. They write the idea they “got” in the “Get One” column of their worksheet.
8. The pairs separate, raise their hands, find a new partner and repeat steps 6-7.
9. Students move to the outside of the room once their sheet is full, providing possible answers for students who haven’t filled their “Get One” column.
10. Students return to their tables and share their ideas from the “Get One” column.

3. Encourage proper thanks to partners after swapping ideas.
Social Skills

Popcorn
Popcorn
Popcorn.mp4Grouping: no grouping strategy is needed; the entire class will participate in this cooperative learning strategy.
Materials: the students will need writing utensils and paper to take notes on the information.
Directions: This is a very short and simple strategy that can be implemented in a variety of
ways, such as test reviews, class discussions, etc.
The teacher will ask a question or give a problem that has multiple answers.
The teacher then gives the class time to think about the problem.
When the teacher calls “Popcorn,” the students quickly and voluntarily pop up from their chairs one at a time to share an answer.
Seated students write responses and mark incorrect answers.
Inaccurate information is discussed at the conclusion of the activity.
