Daily Stingers (Bellringers)
Every class begins with the same 10-minute routine, using the deck below:
- Rewrite today’s question in your own words, on your own line.
- Write your response. At least 3 sentences, aim for 5. Explain your thinking. Don’t just answer in a single word or phrase. Stuck on how to start? Try: “I think ___ because ___. One example of this is ___.”
- Share your response with a classmate.
- Copy their response underneath yours.
- Synthesize what the two responses had in common, in 1 to 2 sentences.
Responses are recorded on the stinger response sheet.
