What should it look like?

4. Respectfully disagreeing with an idea
Turn and Talk to your group (write notes on whiteboards):
What are ways that you or someone you know has handled talking with someone who does not share your opinion or thought on an idea?
How do you prevent a disagreement from turning into a stand-off?
What are ways you can begin a statement that will show your classmate that you respect what they said, but are going to be disagreeing with them?

5. How can you ask for clarification?
Turn and talk:
When a classmate (or Ms. Fowler) explains something or voices a thought that you didn’t quite understand, how do you respectfully ask for clarification?
What are ways you can begin a phrase/or question to indicate that you are not understanding what was said?

6. How can you add on to an idea?
Turn and Talk:
Have you ever heard something from a classmate that resonated with you and you wanted to add on?
How do you handle wanting to add to the statement?
How can you start a phrase when you want to add on to a thought/statement?

7. How can you ask for evidence?
Turn and Talk:
Sometimes we need evidence for someone’s statement.
What kind of evidence might be used to support statements?
