TeamRap, also known as Round Robin (Kagan,2009) is particularly useful to review content in already explored in teams and to develop team cohesiveness. Team members rotate in a clockwise direction taking in turns with responses.

 

 

TeamRap 

 

STEP BY STEP - TeamRap 

 

(1) Student table teams are given a topic

(2) Give students 5 to 10 seconds to think about their thoughts on the topic.

(3) Oneteam member begins and says a quick response

(4) Thnext team member in a clockwise direction responds with a quick response.

(5) The process repeats until the teacher calls time, or alternatively until all team member have had a turn.

(6) If the teacher wishes, they can call on one team member to give an example or his/her,a team member's response, or all of the team's responses.
