Mix Freeze Group
How exactly do students form groups after answering a question? If everyone chooses #2, is it one big group? I'm confused...

Re: Mix Freeze Group
In Mix Freeze Group, students create a group that is the size of the answer. So for example, if the answer was two, when you call group, students would form a group of two and take a knee. Each round, they will create a group the size of the answer. Hope this helps!

Re: Mix Freeze Group
You are absolutely correct that classroom management, social skills, and emotional safety are essential for cooperative learning to be successful in a classroom. While the cooperative learning structures are often the most visible aspect of cooperative learning easily seen in CL classrooms, there are seven keys to cooperative learning success (with "Structures" being just one of the seven components). You are so wise to incorporate what you've learned from Tribes training into the cooperative learning classroom!

Check the steps of the structure in your Cooperative Learning text, page 6.29. Steps #3 - 6 should help clarify. Mix-Freeze-Group is such an engaging classbuilding structure! I'm delighted that you are using it!
