How Jigsaw works: Students read a section of a given reading independently writing down three key concepts and any vocabulary words. Second, students meet in same groups to discuss their key concepts, vocabulary terms, and their similarities and differences. As a group they pair down all of their key concepts to two or three group key concepts (that may look different from any one individuals key concepts). Lastly, students are put into mixed groups where there is one person from each section of the reading. Collectively they each take turns teaching the others on their section. Students from the other sections will take notes on the key concepts from the other sections.
