Step by step

  1. Cut out the cards and ask the students to place them on a Agree/Unsure/Disagree Continuum.  
  2. Alternatively, read out the statement and ask the students to place themselves along a continuum – this could be the length of the classroom, or outside.

As an extension exercise, students could be asked to look up evidence to support their answers, particularly for the ‘unsure’ cards. The quality and reliability of sources could also be discussed.
