What should I do?
Activity type: Discussion circle
Time: 10–15 minutes
Preparation:  Click here to download the activity sheets. Print them out. Photocopy and cut out one "problem" strip for each student.
Procedure: Give each student one "problem" strip. Divide the class into groups of six to eight students, then split each group in half. Tell one half to form a circle facing outward and the other half to form another circle around the first circle, facing inward. Make sure that each student is facing a partner in the corresponding circle. If there is a group with an odd number of students, you should join in to complete the circle. Give each pair three minutes to ask for and give advice about their problems. After three minutes, have the students in the inner circle take one step to the right. With a new partner, give students another three minutes to ask for and give advice about their problems. Continue rotating until each student has talked to everyone else in the circle. As a review, ask students to share the best advice they received.
Option: Give each student a blank card, and have him or her make up another problem. Follow the advice circle as described above.
