1. How it Works  STEP ONE: Students each get a note card with a question such as "How did you spend your summer break?" or "What is your favorite memory?" On your go, players walk around the room, until you say stop. Then count to three and tell the students to shake hands and share. Each person gets 30 seconds to read the question on the card and listen to the other person's comment. 
STEP TWO: (CHOOSE ONE OF THE EXTENSION ACTIVITIES) - Play it twice. Start a second round in which students exchange their note cards each time they shake and share.  - Write it down. Invite students to write several questions, ranking them from "Easy" to "Difficult." Easy ones would be one-word-answer questions or questions that aren't very personal. Difficult questions would be ones that require more thought or more trust.  - Test their memory. At the end of the questioning, see who can remember the most answers. Or try the same activity playing musical chairs with two lines of chairs facing each other. When you say stop, students must sit and exchange their questions and answers until there are only two remaining. The one who remembers the most information wins.  - Practice interviewing. Give students questions they might find in a job interview. Or if they are researching historical figures, give them biographical questions.    What They Learn  Creative questioning, answering on their feet (literally!), time management, manners, interviewing skills, memory skills, trust building
