I am beginning a Go Green series. By going green I will share ways to use cooperative learning in the classroom by cutting back on copies that you make and/or eliminating paper altogether. There are so many ways to go green, and I can’t wait to share!
Multiples have been on my mind lately. This is something that my students should know, but it so important that I want to reinforce. Today I had a few extra minutes, so we did Four Corners. Before I told them what we were doing, I wrote four numbers on the board (3,5,6, and 10). Then, they were to pick a number and write it on a sticky note. I then appointed each number a corner of the room in which they were to locate to. Once they were in their corner, they found a partner and said the first ten multiples of their number in a popcorn fashion.
This was a last minute idea with no preparation needed, and my students reviewed their multiples! Easy, effective, and energizing!

Erica, if you will e-mail me at cooperativelearning365@yahoo.com and we can chat. I would love to know more about it!
Love to see this post! I am working on going completely paperless in my classroom (by choice, not force) and I love to see others thinking similarly. Please follow my blog. I am a newbie blogger :)

This is so great. Our copies have been limited during the last few years and this will work.
Thanks for sharing!
