Chelsea & Meredith's Act II / Last Act

Hi guys.
It's Chelsea and Meredith!

We just wanted to tell everyone a bit about what we are planning for our Act 2. We can formally introduce it, as well as answer any questions you guys might have about it, at the meeting on Monday. We just wanted to send it out now so everyone would have a heads up and so everyone's prepared.

I also sent this out to everyone through e-mail, just in case not everyone sees it here.

We wanted to do something that the entire class could all be involved in at once, as well as something fun that the rest of you guys could be involved in, too. Also, we thought it would be a good way to reinforce what the class had learned from our presentations, and see how well they were paying attention. ^_~

Hope you all like it. ^^

LAST ACT:

(we would go after everyone else does their Act 2, so as to not take up too much time or detract from what you guys are doing. I think this should end up to be around a 30 to 35 minute game.)

Everyone in the class participates in the "Post-it Game." Group 2 members are the facilitators of the game, while the rest of the class become the players.

Step 1: Set-up.

Move all the chairs into a circle, with each player in a chair. Group 2 members will be outside of the circle.


Step 2: Group 2 members choose 4 roles, each, to be used.

Each member of Group 2 will choose 4 roles, relating to their Act 1 Presentation, and written on 4 individual post-it notes, to be assigned to the players. (Chelsea and Meredith will furnish the post-it notes.) For example, Chelsea's 4 roles to be assigned will be:

Brian Steidle, (photographer,);
Mia Farrow, (photographer,);
a Darfurian refugee;
and a member of the Janjaweed,(Arab militia.)


Step 3: The post-it notes are shuffled.


Step 4: The game begins.

A player will be chosen to start the game. Chelsea will put a post-it note, with the role to be played written on it, on the player's forehead.

The player with the post-it note on their forehead is encouraged to ask questions to help them figure out who they are, followed by everyone in the class offerring hints to help them figure out their identity. For example, if the role assigned to the player is Mia Farrow, the player with the post-it note on their forehead might ask, "Am I an actress?" Then the whole group shouts, "Yes!"

If the player wearing the post-it note is too shy to ask questions, anyone in the class can give them hints. For example, someone can shout, "You are an actress!"

Hopefully, each person with a role playing post-it note on their forehead will ask several questions about their identity, followed by everyone offering hints about their identity.

When the role player guesses their identity, they get a prize, and the game continues, clockwise, to the next player. For example, Evan will put a post-it note, with a new role to be played, on the next player's forehead.

The process repeats until everyone has played and received a prize.


The End.
