1. This holds the students accountable for the information so it keeps the children on task and focused on the lesson material due to the fact that their name could be called at random.
2. She will give those students she knows needing the extra time a heads up that way it brings their anxiety levels down so they can think about what they are going to say when they answer.
3. I think this strategy could also be used for a pop quiz or test review questions vs. just during a lesson.

This is a great tool to make sure every students name is called upon, rather than tools like pulling popscile sticks due to not everyones name being calls. Also using the names more than once in the stack is nice, because then they will make sure they are paying attention.

The use of these cards and the students' names is great. The students can sometimes feel left out if they are not called or feel like the teacher is picking on them if they are called on too much, so this is a great way to eliminate both. This also makes the students stay engaged during the whole lesson because their name could be called more than once and they can not zone out. I also like how she pointed out this gives the student a little bit of time to think about an answer or the lesson before being called on, which does decrease the anxiety of being called on in front of their peers.
