Summary

Put these countries into groups. Then do it again. Then… do it one more time. How does re-re-grouping the same places reveal new patterns and give new insights?

  1. Students create 2-5(ish) categories of countries using a list that they generate or that you provide. They can use an criteria to form their groups, but no group can be called "other."
  2. Then they'll start over and re-group those same countries into new categories.
  3. Then, yes, they'll re-re-group those countries into yet another set of categories.
  4. Finally, students describe how looking at the same countries from different perspectives gave them some new insight or idea.
