Ideas into your brain...

I often ask pupils and teachers how often they change talk partners; a typical answer is ‘not very often’.  Let’s switch things up!  When we try it, and ask the children what they think, they say:

  • “I like the idea of switching talk partners because then you learn more about others and their thoughts.” (Yr5)

  • “I like that! I like talking to different people. Once I had someone who just sat there for a whole term!” (Yr1)

  • “You swap seats and other people come and put other ideas into your brain.” (Yr4)
