You’re going to play a game where you have to predict how one of your colleagues would behave in a given situation. Your teacher will give you three cards similar to this one.
Read the cards and choose one of them. Then choose someone in the class (but don’t say who yet). Write down on a piece of paper how you think he/she would react in that situation. When it is your turn, ask your question to the person you chose. He/she must say how he/she would react. If your prediction is right, you score a point! If you don’t agree, or think they are lying, you can challenge them! The secret is to match a person and a situation, and then it is a question of how well you know your colleagues.
