Inside-Outside Discussion Circles Print this page Save this page
Divide the class into two circles with one inside the other—students should be facing a partner. Indicate whether the inside circle or the outside circle should respond, then call out a question to be answered. Allow time for discussion between the partners, then either the inner circle or the outer circle should move to the left or right, then the pattern is repeated. After each question, repeat the pattern.
