Yes-no-maybe

This instructional strategy involves students responding to statements by determining whether they agree (yes), disagree (no), or are not sure (maybe). Students proceed to different areas of the room designated for each response, where they speak to peers in groups of two to three and explain why they chose yes, no, or maybe. After each group has reported, the teacher emphasizes the diversity of perspectives and rationales and allows pupils to return to their seats.


By repeating this game with different prompts, kids get to share and hear their peers' perspectives many times. This deepens students' reflections, particularly when structured around selected readings on intellectual humility.
