One of the best ways for students to develop communication skills, build confidence, as well as learn and retain content is through thoughtful class discussion. From simple turn-and-talk to Socratic Circles, there are many great discussion formats you can use in the classroom to get students to share ideas and learn from each other. One of my favorite discussion strategies is the 4 Chair Fishbowl.

LITTLE ROCK – Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge joined First Community Bank and banks around the nation warning Arkansans about the latest scam sweeping the State. The newest scam involves con artists spoofing a phone number to cause the bank’s fraud department name and number to display on the phone’s caller I.D. The scammer will use official-sounding conversation to gain the trust and then ask for the consumer to provide a verification code via text message. The code will give the scammer access to the consumer’s account, and even change the online banking password. The scammer will then transfer the funds in the account via a third party app, such as Zelle.
