receive a quote, practice reading it aloud to yourself. When I say go, walk around the room, introduce yourself to another person and read your quotes to each other. If someone wants to trade, you must agree.

Have You Ever? • Being careful with your chairs, everyone make one

large circle in the center of the room (When we say go).

• One person is going to be left standing with out a chair in the middle of the circle.

• The person in the center of the circle has to ask the group if they have ever done something embarrassing that they have done. If you have ever done what the speaker asked then you must quickly stand-up and find another seat.

• The person left without a seat becomes the speaker and asks the next have you ever question.

– For crowd control – you can have students “stand up – sit down”.6
