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