Give One, Get One

 

Groupings: Students wander the classroom in this activity and pair up randomly multiple times.

 

Materials: One piece of folded paper, pencil/pen/etc.

 

Directions:

1.)    Have students get out a piece of paper and fold it lengthwise, like a hot dog bun. 

2.)    Instruct students to open the paper and draw a line down the folded center.  On the top of the left side, they should write “Give One”.  At the top of the right side, they should write “Get One”.

3.)    Pose a question or topic with multiple answers.

4.)    Tell the students to write as much as they know about the topic in the “give one” column.  Set a time limit for this part (Example: 1 minute).

5.)    Alert students that time is up.

6.)    Tell students to stand, put a hand up, and find a partner.

7.)    Have students greet their partner.

8.)    Partner A will then read a statement off of his/her “Give One” list.  If Partner B has this on his/her “Give One” list, he/she places a check next to it.  If he/she does not have this information already, he/she will write it in the “Get One” list.  Partners A and B will then reverse roles and repeat the process.  When they are done, they say goodbye, put their hands back up, and find a new partner.

9.)    The activity continues until the teacher decides when time is up.
