15. FUN ACTIVITY TIME Story time: Pass Right/Pass Left ACTIVITY: Have your entire group form a circle. The best format is to have them seated on the floor sitting “Indian" style. If this will not work with your group, you can have them in chairs or even standing in a circle. Give each person in the circle a penny, card, or some other small item that can be passed easily from hand to hand. Tell the group that you are going to read them a story and every time they hear any word that sounds like right, they are to pass the button in their hand to he person on their right depending on what they heard. Start reading the story slowly so that they have a chance to catch on to what you want them to do. After a few passes stop the story and ask them how they are doing. Check to see that everyone has a button in his hand. If your group is typical, some will have two or three buttons and others will not have any. Have them redistribute the buttons so that everyone has one again. Now continue to read the story, getting faster as you go. Stop the story a couple of more times to check on how they are doing.
