• Provide opportunities for interaction – Get ‘em gabbin!
• Teacher talk vs. Student talk– Think/Pair/Share– “Test your partner”– Surveys & Interviews
www.actfl.org

• Think/Pair/Share– Great for pre-reading/writing– Brainstorming as part of anticipatory set– Careful: “Pair” is easy to forget!
• “Pair” allows students to learn from each other before they have to perform

• Test your partner– Manipulatives or visual practice
• “Touch the picture”, “Show me the….”
– Flows effectively from teacher-directed practice
– Short time period

• Surveys & Interviews– Can be used at all levels
• Novice: teacher created questions or question frames to provide student choice
• Intermediate +: student created questions
