As an introductory activity, it would be helpful to have books available at each station or Internet access, so that students have an outlet to research the question posed.

As a review activity, simply have students rotate from one station to the other answering the review questions.

This allows students to collaborate with one another to discuss and come to a conclusion on the answer. Students will not be left on their own, but will have the opportunity to learn from their classmates. This lesson also incorporates movement in the classroom rather than asking them to remain in their seats for the hour-long or more class periods.
