 In the group response method, students answer the teacher's questions as a group. This is also known as choral response. The teacher begins by explaining that they will use two cues. First is the hold cue. It means wait and think of your answer. Next is the respond cue. It means say your answer now. These cues can be visual such as hand gestures or auditory like a word or sound. The teacher asks a question and gives the hold cue for a couple of seconds. Then the teacher gives the respond cue and all of the students say their answer together. This method is used with factual questions that can be answered with one to three words. If some students give incorrect answers, the teacher knows to reteach that information. Using the hold and respond cues gives students time to think and answer together as a group.
