Our Last WhatsApp Group Session !

Dear students,

For our last WhatsApp meetings of the year, I thought we would shake things up a little!

Let's play "21 Questions"!

What's the concept?

Well, the game is pretty simple.... we ask each other a set list of questions that should help us to explore our opinions about life, the universe and everything.

But we don't have time to answer 21 questions in 30 minutes and, Mrs C, don't you know your classes always run over the allotted time?

Yes, I know... which is why I would like you to prepare the following steps before class.

1. Read through the list of 21 questions at the bottom of this page.
2. Choose 5 questions you would like to ask the people in your WhatsApp group.
3.  Consider how you might answer the other questions...
4. Turn up for class !

Here is the list:

ps/ Please don't forget to write your letter to next year's students. You don't need to write a book, a couple of paragraphs will do : https://pontoigcse.blogspot.com/2020/06/dear-new-student.html

pps/ for those of you who don't know that the answer to questions about the life, the universe and everything is 42, consider reading (or watching) Douglas Adam's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02969-8 )
