- Depending on the size of your class and the time available,
either do this as a whole class or divide the class up into smaller
groups of about 10-15. Remember that every member of the group
is going to have to try to speak to everyone else in the group.
- Give each person a worksheet. There is one supplied here, but
you might want to change it if your entire group are from the
same town or if it's not appropriate to ask about age etc.
- The individual members of the group walk around the class, asking
their questions and making brief notes of the answers.
- Give the group enough time to ask their questions and collect
the information. You might want to join in yourself if you don't
know the people in the group.
- Ask everyone to sit down but not show their notes to
anyone.
- Ask someone to stand up and tell the class about 1 of
the people they met. They should give as much information as they
have on that person but not the name.
- The rest of the group listen to the information and check it
against the information they collected. If they think they know
the name of the person being talked about, they should put up
their hand and say the name of the person they think it is.
- The person whose name has been mentioned should then confirm
whether it's them or not.
- Now ask another person to stand up and repeat the process from
step 6, until everyone in the group has been mentioned.
