Create Discussion Groups:  With your classmates, get in circle groups of 4 to 6 students.  
Prepare Answer  Sheets:   Each student needs a piece of notebook paper as an answer sheet.  Turn the 
answer sheet sideways and draw lines to divide it into 3, 4, or 5 block 
sections (depending on the number of 
students in the group  minus yourself).  If you are not at a table, place a book your lap so that you may wr
ite 
on the piece of notebook paper.
Introductions:  Each person in the group shares his or her name.  Write down the person's name across the 
top of your answer sheet allowing one block section for each person.  Do
 not write down any information 
for yourself.
Discussion Question #1:  Go around the group and let each person answer the first question out loud.   As 
each person speaks, write down his or her answer on your answer sheet in
 that person's block.
Discussion Questions #2 to #10:   Go around the group and 
let each person answer the second question.  As each person 
speaks, briefly write down his or her answers on your answer 
sheet in that person's block.  Do the same with the next question 
until every person has answered all ten questions.
