{{activity|video}} Watch the following video clip together. As you watch, think about the following:
* What are you noticing?
* At what point(s) in the lesson could this be used?
* What do you think the students are learning from this?
* How are they learning?
* Can brainstorming be used with large classes too, where there isn’t time for everyone to contribute each time? How would you adapt it for this?

This clip from the same Grade 3 classroom illustrates how the teacher solicits (and records) different students’ views without evaluating them.

Note that the clip shows the start of a lesson but it can be done at any point in a lesson. It shows a brainstorm – with unique contributions, allowing time to think first, ‘no hands up’ technique too.
