People in our class just sit there, they don't want to participate

How can we get them to talk?

Write down some ideas that might help participation.  Then look at possible answers below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Getting People to Participate

Ask them the right kinds of questions (coming up later in this lesson)

Be willing to wait for an answer

Ask for their opinions (everyone has opinions)

Get them to talk to each other

Groups of 2 -- neighbor nudge

Groups of 3 or 4 pool their ideas

Write down their answers for everyone to see (chalk board, white board, overhead)

This shows you value their contributions
