Check understanding
- Read assigned material and prepare three discussion points or questions before a group conversation
- During discussion, refer explicitly to the text or preparation notes to support a point
- After a group exchange, explain how one's own thinking changed or was confirmed by others' contributions
“If your child knows they're going to discuss a topic in class, do they think about it beforehand and come ready with ideas or facts to share?”
