Using sticky back name tags put 3 or 4 names that go together on the tag (David, Jon, Tom and Alex). the students are allowed to find their partners by asking yes/no questions. When they find the rest of their group, they have to work on a short review assigment. It can be a list of questions from the previous week's content or a reflection or anything that requires that they work together. The process of finding the rest of the group takes only 5 minutes and get students active and focuse.
