Amanda, there are lots of ways, but one of my favorites is to give them a heads
up. I let them know that I will be calling on them in the near future (next
person, after I've read the next section...just somehow give them fair warning
that you will call on them so they have time to get their response ready. This
might also be a student that you nudge during a conference and ask them to
share their thinking at the wrap up lesson (or whatever you call the end of
your lesson, when you bring back your students to synthesize their
learning/thinking)

I was curious about what steps I can take towards getting a shy student to
become more involved in class discussions when he/she refuses to participate?
