Class Size:  Any size

 

Materials Needed:  Decks of cards (number of decks depends on the number of questions developed by the facilitator.  Have at least one ‘deck’ for each table of participants.

 

Time required:  20 to 30 minutes (depends on the number of questions structured by the facilitator

 

Instructions:

 

This activity requires some preparation time before class but can be a useful and fun reinforcement activity.  Take a regular deck of playing cards.  Write or type a question on the material and adhere each question to a playing card.  Using adhesive package labels is one easy way to do this.  NOTE:  You don’t need to have a question for every card in the deck.  Just shuffle the deck of cards to disperse the questions.  Deal 5 to 10 cards to each group (be certain each group has a few questions to answer).  The working group must then answer the questions dealt and share the questions and answers with the whole group at the end of the activity.
