I use Breaout rooms once every week with my 11th and 12th graders and I keep going in and out the rooms (like a ghost) every 2 or 3 minutes. I just listen to their interactions, since usually I give them plenty of work to do as a team, even team quizzes. They need to discuss the exercises and come up with a consensus. I love to listen to their conversations when they try to persuade each other. They know I will be be in and out their groups. I interefere when I see there is a miscommunication or to clarify any doubt.
