Agree to Disagree

This game is good for upper-intermediate to advanced students.

Supplies:
5 signs- Strongly Agree, Somewhat Agree, Neutral, Somewhat Disagree, Strongly Disagree
Arrange chairs into a semi-circle and spread the signs out around the semi-circle.

Be sure that everyone understands what each category means. Explain that you are going to read a statement and that each person should move and stand next to the category that best describes his or her feelings about that statement.

Example statements:
1. Ukraine is the best country to live in.
2. Students should be required to wear uniforms to school.
3. Europeans are better-looking that Americans.

As always, be sensitive to the cultural that you're teaching to. I avoid political statements at all costs. :)
