Zigsaw

The zigsaw technique is a strategy that groups kids together to have them teach each other words or phrases within a text. The instructor places the kids together in what is called a "home group". The students in the "home group" decide which vocabulary words or phrases are important within a certain range of pages.
Groups are then split and each person within the group is sent to a new area to join in with an "expert group". The expert group, comes up as a group, with the best way to teach the home group the information that they are assigned.
Once this is accomplished, the students head back to the home group to teach their lesson. This strategy is a great way to divide up the work and to give the student representative from each topic area collaboration to be certain they are coming up with the best way to teach. They can also take ownership in their given topic and feel excited about being the expert about their topic.
I would definitely use this strategy in art, as there are often vocabulary words or phrases that need in-depth explanations.
