Kagan’s Cooperative Learning Structures © 1998

1. Circle-the-Sage: Students who know, stand to become sages; teammates each gather around a different sage to learn. Students return to teams to compare notes.

2. Find My Rule: The teacher places items in a frame (two boxes, Venn, on a line); Students induce the rule.

a. Two Box Introduction b. What’s My Line c. Crack My Venn

3. Find Someone Who: Students circulate, finding others who can contribute to their worksheet.

a. People Hunt: Students circulate, finding others who match their own characteristics.

b. Fact Bingo: Find Someone Who played on a bingo worksheet. 4. Find the Fib: Teammates try to determine which of three statements is a fib.

a. Fact or Fiction: Teammates try to determine if a statement is true or false. 5. Inside/Outside Circle: Students in concentric circles rotate to face a partner to

answer the teacher’s questions or those of the partner. 6. Jigsaw Problem Solving: Each teammate has part of the answer or a clue

card; teammates must put their info together to solve the team problem. 7. Match Mine: Receivers arrange objects to match those of Senders whose

objects are hidden by a barrier. a. Draw-What-I-Say: Receiver draws what sender describes. b. Build-What-I-Write: Receiver constructs what Sender has described in

writing. 8. Mix-Freeze-Group: Students rush to form groups of a specific size, hoping not

to land in “Lost and Found” (with the teacher). 9. Mix-Pair-Discuss: Students pair with classmate, to discuss question posed by

the teacher. 10. Numbered Heads Together: Students huddle to make sure all can respond, a

number is called, the student with the number responds. a. Paired Heads Together: Students in pairs huddle to make sure they both

can respond, an “A” or “B” is called, the student with that letter responds. b. Traveling Heads Together: Students in Numbered heads travel to new

teams to share response. 11. One Stray: The teacher calls a number; students with that number “stray” to

join another team, often to share. a. Two Stray: Two students stray to another team, often to share and to

listen. 12. Pairs Check: Students work first in pairs each doing a problem and receiving

coaching from their partner; then pairs check and celebrate after every two problems.

13. Pairs Compare: Pairs generate ideas or answers, compare their answers with another pair, and then see if working together the can come up with additional responses neither pair alone had.

14. Partners: Pairs work to prepare a presentation, then present to the other pair in their team.

15. Rally Table: Students in pairs take turns, writing, drawing, pasting. (2 erasers, 2 pencils per team)

16. Rotating Review: Teams discuss topic, chart their thoughts, rotate to the next chart to discuss and chart their thoughts.

17. Sages Share: Students take turns interviewing the “sages”-those who can explain an idea.

18. Send-(Trade) a-Problem: Teammates make problems whicj are sent around the class for other teams to solve.

19. Showdown: Teammates each write an answer, then there is a “showdown” as they show their answers to each other. Teammates verify answers.

20. Teammates Consult: For each of a series of questions, students place pens in a cup, share and discuss their answers, and then pick up pens to write answer in own words.

21. Team-Pair-Solo: Students solve problems first as a team, then as a pair, finally alone.

22. Team Stand-N-Share: All teams stand. Teams share ideas and record ideas from other teams. Teams sit when all ideas are share and continue to record until all teams sit.

23. Team Statements: Students think, discuss in pairs, write an individual statement, RoundRobin individual statements, and then work together to arrive at team statement they all endorse more strongly than their individual statements.

24. Team Mind Map: Students draw and label the central image, brainstorm, draw and label main ideas radiating out of the central image, and finally add details using colors, images, branches and key words.

25. Think-Pair-Share: Students think about their response to a question, discuss answer in pairs, and share their own or partner’s answer with the class.

26. Three-Pair-Share: Students share on a topic three times, once with each teammate.

27. Three-Step Interview: Students share with a partner, the partner shares with them, and then they RoundRobin share their partner’s response with the other teammates.

28. Timed Pair Share: Students share with a partner for a predetermined amount of time and then the partner shares with them for the same amount of time.

29. What Am I? Students attempt to determine their secret identity (taped on their back) by circulating asking “yes-no” questions of classmates. They are allowed three questions per classmate (or unlimited questions until they receive a no response). They then find a new classmate to question. When the student guesses his/her identify, he/she becomes a consultant to give clues to those who have not yet found their identity.
