    Numbered Heads Together is a cooperative learning strategy where students work in teams to answer questions posed by the teacher. Each student on a team is assigned a number. Students first think individually about the answer, then discuss as a team to reach a consensus. The teacher calls a number, and the students with that number from each team must share the team's agreed upon answer. This strategy builds academic and social skills like teamwork, communication, and critical thinking. Variations include pairing students or having them rotate to new teams to share answers.

    Numbered Heads Together

    This is a cooperative learning activity where teammates put their “heads together” to
    Reach consensus on the team's answers. Everyone keeps on their toes because their
    number may be called to share the team's answer. This structure functions to build
    Interpersonal and academic skills. These include team building, social skills,
    communication skills, decision making, knowledge building, procedure learning,
    processing information and thinking skills.

    How to use

    Setup: Teacher prepares questions or problems to ask teams.

    1. Students number off.

    2. Teacher poses a problem and give time to think. (Example: “How are rainbows
    formed? Think about your best answer.”)

    3. Students privately write their answers.

    4. Students stand up and “put their heads together,” showing answers, discussing and
    teaching each other.

    5. Students sit down when everyone knows the answer or has something to share.

    6. Teacher Calls a number. Students with the number answers simultaneously using:

     Answer Board Share


     Chalkboard Responses
     Choral Practice
     Response Cards
     Finger Responses
     Manipulatives

    7. Classmates applaud students who responded.

    When to use

    Use Numbered Heads Together to:

     Check grammar
     Review math problems
     Discuss any concrete answers
     Discuss steps to solving
     Build team building
     Use anytime in a lesson

    Variations
    Paired Heads Together Students are in shoulder partner pairs. Are the teacher asked a
    question, pears huddle to improve the answer they have each written. The teacher then
    calls for either partner A or partner B to share their best answer with their face partner.

    Stir-the-Class Team stands around the outside of the class with spaces between teams.
    Teammates stand shoulder-to-shoulder. The teacher poses a question and then students
    write their own answers on an answer board or slip of paper. Teammates huddle to
    reach consensus, then un-huddle when done. The teacher selects a number and tells
    students with that number how many teams to rotate forward to share their answer.

    Traveling Heads Together Traveling heads together starts the same as numbered heads
    together, but when the teacher calls a number, the student with that number on each
    team stands, then “travels” to a new team to share their answers. For fun, seated
    students back in for standing student to join their team.
