Building on Background Knowledge Charts
Groups of 5-6
Each person uses a different color marker
Each round, each person writes 1-2 ideas on the chart, silently
After all colors (people) are represented on the chart, each person takes turns explaining what they wrote

There should be no talking between salons.
