Another talk game for families or classrooms

Here’s my take on a game that you may have come across before. Simply raise each question, and let people discuss Who (in the room) is most likely to…, and give their reasons.

Here are a few questions that might work well at home with the family:

Who is most likely to…

  • put on odd socks?

  • dance in front of everyone?

  • eat something off the floor?

  • win a sporting medal?

  • become a millionaire?

  • sleep through their alarm clock?

  • ask to borrow £5?

  • make someone a cup of tea?

  • save a bee that was in trouble?

  • win the Nobel Peace Prize?

For the classroom, try the following thirty positive achievement questions. You could give your pupils the list, in pairs, and ask them to put a different child’s name next to each one – making sure everyone’s name appears at least once.
