Second, students pair up with someone sitting near them and share their responses verbally. Third, the lecturer chooses a few pairs to briefly summarize their ideas for the benefit of the entire class.

Processing Activities • Found Poems • Create a poem from the text itself by only using words, phrases, and images from original text • Book Ends • Pairs of students discuss and make predictions before an activity, then meet after the activity to review and compare reactions • Comparing • To observe or consider the characteristics of objects or concepts, looking for both similarities and differences
