Rally Table

The structure is a versatile and adaptable one which can be used to bring two pairs together to make a larger group of four. There is a high degree of interaction between students at all times.

PURPOSE

Sharing information, developing ideas, helping recall, revision

STEPS

In this structure teams of four or six first work as pairs. In your Revision Twin write the first question on a piece of paper then pass the piece of paper to and fro, taking it in turns to write ideas or answers to a problem.

  1. When time is called compare your list to the other members in your group then pool your ideas in the Venn Diagram template
  2. When complete repeat the process for the next revision question
