Wildcat Teacher Resource Center

Stand Up – Hand Up – Pair Up

The teacher says, when I say go, you will “stand up, hand up, and pair up!” The teacher pauses and then says, “Go!”

Students stand up and keep one hand high in the air until they find the closest partner who is not a teammate. Students do a “high five” and put their hands down.

The teacher asks a question or gives an assignment, and provides think time. 

Partners interact using RallyRobin or Timed Pair Share.
