The Pick a Number strategy asks students to read a selection of quotations on a topic and choose one to explore more deeply. Use this strategy when you want to briefly introduce students to several perspectives on a topic and then offer each student the choice of which perspective to discuss and investigate in more detail with their classmates.
This discussion strategy helps students practice being both active speakers and active listeners in a group conversation.
Students have a written conversation with peers and use silence as a tool to explore a topic in depth.
