Description: Prepare a list of questions beforehand or ask students to come up with questions they have or that are related to the topic. Arrange or move the desks so that there are two chairs facing each other on either side of each desk/table. Have students count off into two groups (1s and 2s). Then have all the ‘1s’ sit at the desks. The 2s each sit at a desk opposite a 1 and discuss or answer questions with the 1s. After 1 minute, give a signal, and the 2s move to the next desk opposite a different 1 and repeat the process with the next question.
