Partnering / Grouping ■ Have individual check-ins for getting to know your students. ■ Group students heterogeneously. ■ Always group students in advance. ■ For accountability, have “stand-up” meetings where one member reports to you on group progress. ■ Create opportunities for students to brag about their partners with awards. This also builds accountability. Example Multiple Intelligence Test
