Students are then tasked with developing a dialogue with their partner that somehow uses this
phrase. Students may script the dialogue if they wish, but only give them limited planning time
(5-10 minutes). After they have prepared their dialogue, students perform the dialogue in front of
the class, and the other students listen carefully to hear which words or phrases seem extra
carefully planned to find the secret phase. If you have individual white boards, have the students
write down the phrase as they hear it and then show their board after the pair has finished the
dialogue. If they found the correct secret phrase, they get a point. If no one finds the pairs secret
phrase, the pair that developed the dialogue gets a point.
