In the first part of this activity, in a document, students write about something interesting that has happened in their lives. Examples of interesting events include meeting a famous person, eating a strange kind of food, having an accident, etc.. In the documents, students should write no more than two or three sentences to describe their events. When they are finished, it is important that they share their files with the teacher.
Next, students walk around the room and talk to the other students in the class. They need to memorize each other's names and tell each other about their interesting events. Students should try to talk to every other student in the class if possible.
In the third part of the activity, the teacher opens the students' documents, and reads the events to students to see if they can remember the person who the story is about. This can be done as a group or the teacher can ask individual students.
