4 Steps to Partner Quiz
STEP 1:
STEP 2:
- Students stand (holding their Partner Quiz card).
- Students put one hand up to find a partner – closest student with hand up. It’s good to emphasize this because some will only want to play with their buddies.
STEP 3:
- Partners greet.
- Partner A quizzes/coaches partner B.
- Partner B Answers
STEP 4:
- Same as Step 2 with roles reversed.
- Partner B quizzes/coaches partner A.
- Partner A Answers
STEP 4
- Partners thank each other, say good-by.
- They put their hands up to find a new partner and repeat steps 1-4.
- Kids love to quiz the teacher.
- You can discreetly help struggling students.
- If the class needs a “refresher” on PQ procedures, you will know immediately.
