Circle Of Viewpoints

Picture
The Circle of Viewpoints routine helps students to:
    • identify different perspectives that could be present in or affected by what one has just read, seen or heard
    • explore one perspective in further detail
    • explain their reasoning
    • ask questions from a differing perspective

Documenting Thinking

In this routine, students are generally recording their thinking at each step along the way before moving on to the next one. Decide whether sharing of thinking will happen in small groups or as a whole class. Document the main threads that permeate the discussion of the whole class, particularly noting the differences in viewpoints.
