Think-Pair-Share Example - High School

Mathematics (High School)

Think: Give students a complex problem to solve individually, such as a quadratic equation or a geometry problem.

Pair: After a few minutes, have students pair up to compare their approaches and solutions. They should discuss any differences in their methods and work to understand any discrepancies.

Share: Ask several pairs to present their problem-solving methods and solutions to the class. This not only allows students to learn from each other but also introduces them to multiple ways of approaching a problem, enhancing their analytical skills.

In each of these examples, "Think-Pair-Share" serves to deepen understanding, promote critical thinking, and ensure that students are actively engaged in their learning. This technique also supports social learning and helps students develop their communication skills.
