. Who's Telling the Truth?

Have each student write three facts about themselves that nobody in the class knows on a
piece of paper. Make sure each student includes his/her name on the top of the paper. Collect
the sheets of paper and bring three students to the front of the room. Read aloud one of the
facts that is true for one of the students in the front of the room. The class then proceeds to
question the students in an attempt to determine who is telling the truth, and who is lying.
Each student is allowed to ask one question to one of the three students. After a round of
questioning, the students predict who is telling the truth.

Introducing Students to Each Other / Expressing Opinions

Choose a topic that will interest your students.

Ask them to write five or more questions about this topic (students can
also come up with the questions in small groups). Once they have finished
the questions, they should interview at least two other students in the
class and take notes on their answers. When the students have finished
the activity, ask students to summarize what they have found out from the
students they have interviewed.

This exercise is very flexible. Beginning students can ask each other when
they do their various daily tasks, advanced students can make up
questions concerning politics or other hot topics.
