60 second interviews
Use the interview sheet and pair students up by having them count off
(if you have 20, then count to 10 two times. ) Ask each pair to choose one question that
interests both of them. Have them interview each other and jot down
their partner’s name and something they want to remember that their partner said about safety.
Give pairs 60 seconds and then have them each find a new partner. Do this a few times. Afterwards, ask each student to say one new thing that they learned about their advisory team members ideas about safety in and around Avondale Middle School.
