4. MAKE AN APPOINTMENT (Discussion, Collaboration)
 
Description: Students collaboratively communicate with rotating partners in a pre-planned manner.
 
Application: This technique activates prior knowledge and provides guidance for paired discussion or review.
 
Process: Before using the strategy, decide which questions/assigned topic will be discussed at each appointment. (It can be printed on the clock, written on the board or verbally shared by the teacher.) Give each student a clock handout (Addendum A). Tell students they will need to find a partner for each hour mark on the clock. Remind the students that they cannot use any classmate’s name twice on the clock. (Partners always have each other’s names on their matching hour on their clock.) Say to the students “You have 10 seconds to get with your three o’clock partner and discuss question or topic.” Limit time per appointment. Repeat process until all appointments are met. (Number of appointments may vary.) 

Addendum A
