Have you seen teachers posting on social media about their hexagonal grouping activities? I certainly have and I got curious about how it works and how teachers are using it in their world language classes.  I’ve seen Erin Coleman posting and presenting workshops on the topic, so I invited her onto the podcast to share with all of us how she uses hexagonal grouping with her students. Erin shares lots of ideas and pro tips so that you can start using hexagonal grouping with your students.

• what Hexagonal Grouping is and how it works in classrooms
• how can Hexagonal Grouping can be particularly beneficial in world language classes
• what preparation is involved, creating templates and follow-up activities
• specific examples where Erin has successfully used Hexagonal Grouping in her language classroom
