This strategy can be used before introducing new concepts.
It gives everyone in the class time to access prior knowledge and provides
a chance for them to share their ideas with someone. Think-pair-share helps
students organize their knowledge, and motivates learning of new topics.
Directions:
Students are asked to brainstorm a concept individually and organize their
thoughts on paper.
Students pair up and compile a list of their ideas.
Each pair will then share with the entire class until all ideas have been
recorded and discussed.
