A group activity for 4 members. You need to print both documents. -Three members each have a different reading which gives some of the reasons. -The fourth member has a list of questions that he/she can read and try to answer in their heads while the others are reading their pieces . -When the readers have finished the questioner asks the questions on the sheet. Each answer will have been in one of the readings so someone should know the anser to each question. -The questioner writes down the ansers on the sheet. -When completed, the sheet can then form a writing plan for an essay based on the title of the activity. This is a great way for students to produce written pieces based on speaking activities. I have produced this one based on an idea from www.collaborativelearning.org. There are lots of other examples from all subject areas on this website.

I've been looking for resources about the civil war to use with a year 8 group that has a lot of behaviour issues, although most of them are perfectly capable. I struggle to get them to do any group work because they go off task very quickly if not engaged. I like the idea that they all have the chance to make a contribution in this exercise, which hopefully will bolster their confidence. Thank you!
