This activity can be completed in four ways:
Gallery Walk
Group or Pair Work - Have students divide and conquer the gallery walk & worksheet
Base/Expert Groups - Divide students into base and expert groups. Rather than hanging the posters on the wall, print the philosophies and have each expert group review the material and answer on the worksheet. Students then rejoin their base groups and share the knowledge they've gained about their philosophy.
Large Group Presentation - Students become experts on one philosophy and then, using the worksheet as a guide, present their philosophy to the class - groups can even make posters!
