Two True, One False
This is an excellent game/activity to encourage students to speak, think, listen and respond. Students are divided into groups of 4-6. Each person has to either write down or think of 3 "facts" about themselves, only 2 of which are true.
Students then take turns sharing their "3 facts" and the group has to guess which one is "false".
