Collaborative Conversation Sticks {for ELA}

Do you want your students to have deeper, and more meaningful conversations? I created this product to help my students master the CCSS for both Speaking & Listening which state that students need to be able to: “engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions with diverse partners on grade-level topics and texts, building on other’s ideas and expressing their own clearly.”
These 30 Sentence Stem sticks will provide your students with sentence stems to help them be active participants in group discussions during Language Arts. They will also hold the students accountable to contributing and foster critical thinking. The response starters and prompts will focus the academic conversation and keep the students on-topic.

Simply Print, Laminate and attach them to a popsicle stick for students to grab while working in groups.
