Students work together to figure out which two statements are true and which statement is false.
Steps: 1. Divide the students into groups. 2. Provide each group with a set of cards with three statements about a topic on each card. One statement is false and two statements are true. 3. Allow the groups to collaborate and decide which statement is false. | • Strategically pair students for peer support. • Provide sentence frames. • Use Numbered Heads Together. Variations: • Give each group a different set of three cards. After a set time to find the fib, rotate the cards. • Have students write their own set of “Find the Fib” statements. • Have the students explain which word in the statement makes the statement true or false. • Complete as a whole group activity where the teacher says the statements aloud and the students collaborate to find the fib. • Allow students to respond to statements using Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down or Response Boards. • Put true/false signs on different sides of the room. Students move to the answer that they agree with and discuss why they chose that answer. • In math, provide three problems and answers. Ask students to find the incorrect answer by working out the problem. |
