Lesson Plan #5 out of 5

Where do you anticipate having problems with this lesson? I can anticipate that the students might be pairing of with the same or telling others to pair with someone else. I just want the students to match with someone they believe work well together and students can have two matches but must pick one.

7. Materials: Paper and pencils White board Note cards with producers and consumers
