Think-Pair-Share

speakingcommunicationpracticepairsnone prep5-10 minTBLT

Think alone, discuss with a partner, then share with the class.

Procedure

  1. Pose a question to the class.
  2. THINK: silent individual thinking (1-2 min).
  3. PAIR: discuss with a neighbour (2-3 min).
  4. SHARE: selected pairs report to the class.

Tips

  • Essential for quieter students — the silent thinking phase ensures everyone processes before anyone speaks.
  • Works as a lead-in to any discussion activity.
