History of Love Day 4 - How to Survive in the Wild: Group Work pages 46-65
Lesson Overview
Lesson Overview
This is a momentous group work - for the first time, I let the students pick their own groups. By now, they know who works - who doesn't work, and it's important to get them in like-minded groups. One of the major reasons that students hate group work (and they do) is because they often feel that they end up doing all the work and it seems unfair. By allowing them to choose their groups (and they can change anytime but they rarely do), they will find people who work as hard as they do (or not). For those who are not used to being working hard or being focused, they soon find out that they must (and they do) contribute, and work focused and together - in order to get the work done. More on Group Work can be found here.

Group Work through page 65 Docx PDF I usually have these and the quizzes on two separate desks so the students can pick them up on their way in - and get started on the quiz right away. Remind them to turn the Group Work over (it might have quiz answers on it).

Thoughts on the Lesson
The important thing here is to have a great discussion. However, the teacher feels comfortable is, in my opinion, the best possible way to do it. Students love Ringmaster Teacher - I love the other two methods - though I do think I'm pretty proficient at being a Ringmaster. I just think the other ways make the students think and retain better.
