Do you recognize this
activity?
Choose a text that is appropriate level or interest wise. Split the
class into groups or pairs. Each group must have one runner and a
designated writer.
The runner has to go to the assigned text and read the sentences
- committing them to memory - they are not allowed to touch the
paper, take the paper back to the group or shout the sentence
across the room. Once they think they can remember the
sentence they return to the group and repeat to them what it
said.

Then
Have a student in each pair (group) roll a
die and read that part matches the number
they rolled.
After they read it, they should circle that
number on the sheet.
If they get the same number they have to
read again. No numbers circled.
The one who is able to circle all the
numbers next to their numbers is the
winner.
