Learner Resource 1
Instructions
Print out and cut into strips, giving one strip to each learner. 20 strips have been included – you
may need to add more for bigger groups, or give some learner 2 strips if your class is small. Ask
who has a strip that says start. Ask that learner to read the question on the right hand side of their
strip. The class member with the correct answer should say the answer and then read their
question. This should continue until you get back to the learner who started the loop.
This activity requires full concentration and participation of all class members.
