 * **Tea Party** - Read the text and choose 10-20 sentences/phrases from the text. Write/type the sentences onto slips of paper and distribute them to the students, letting them know that the sentences are from the text they are about to read. Students will read their sentences and then mingle amongst classmates - predicting, discussing, and asking questions about the sentences.
 * **Jigsaw Groups** - Expert groups learn their topics/reading passage together. Then, expert groups split into jigsaw groups where students teach each other a concept or lead a discussion on a topic.
