Carousel Brainstorming incorporates movement and conversation to help students build and activate background knowledge prior to studying a new topic. This 15 minute strategy provides your whole group practice in all four domains: listening, speaking, reading and writing. During Carousel Brainstorming, small groups of students rotate around the classroom, stopping at various “stations” to activate or build their prior knowledge of a topic or concept and share their ideas with their small group. This strategy can also be used at the end of a learning session to review the content they already learned. The carousel brainstorming activity helps your ML students hear and discuss topics in both a small group setting and then followed up by whole-class reflection.
