Requiring students to put their heads down before voting reduces students temptation to look around to see how others are voting. At various times throughout the lesson, have students work with their neighbors to write a Jeopardy type question and answer over the material just covered. These questions can be written on index cards and ready to use during the Jeopardy test review game. They can also be posted on the bulletin board for student review prior to the test. Name Cards .
Teachers can create name cards for each student to be used during class when calling on students.
Cards can be cut 1 inch by 3 inches so they can be easily held in the palm of the hand. Cards are shuffled before each class period so that student are called on randomly. Teachers may want to make two cards for each student, so that students may be called on twice during one class period. Teach Your Neighbor . Students are asked to work in pairs, take turns being the teacher, and teach their peer the skill or information just taught by the teacher.
