Instructional Ideas

  • After filling the entire worksheet a few times, have learners reflect on their conversations with their partner and how this process may have provided them a more well-rounded perspective

Classroom Considerations

  • The worksheet is formatted such that it is meant for multiple uses by the same set of partners. This may be difficult if there is no assigned seating in your class, or students often turn to different partners to share

Pros

  • Great tool for establishing good learning practices early on
  • Clear column headings and categories

Cons

  • None
