Free Tools - The Ordered Sharing Process - Suggestions

Suggestions to help you get started with ordered sharing:
The first time you use this process it will take twenty minutes to half an hour. After that, and depending on class size, and how quickly students get organized, allow for about fifteen to twenty minutes.

Do this regularly or as often as possible at the beginning of the week for older students and the beginning of the day for children in self contained classrooms. Do this until you have a clear sense that students are comfortable with this way of communicating.

Be sure that you can give these groups your full attention not only to develop good group processing habits and skills but in order to get to know your students better.
