For Eager Learners


Conversation Starters

Think back to your school days…

  • Do you think students should be able to grade teachers?

  • Who was the best/worst teacher you’ve had?

  • If you could go into the past or the future, which would you choose and why?

  • What topic could you give a 30 minute presentation on without any preparation?

  • What are some things that you get to do that some people might not be able - or allowed - to do? 

  • Imagine you have to hide an elephant! Where would you put it?

  • If you could make 3 family rules, what would they be?

Longest Legacy

  • Out of all the famous people you know of today, each person should choose who will still be being talked about in 200 years. Talk through them all and give your reasons until everyone can agree on who you think the longest remembered person of all the ones mentioned will be! Hint: they don’t necessarily have to be remembered for something positive!

    • Example: I think Queen Elizabeth will still be talked about centuries from now as the longest ruling Monarch!

Five Things

  • Choose a few categories below, or create your own. Each of you will write on a piece of paper or on the notes app in your phone five answers to each category below! The person who completes the task the fastest with correct answers (judged by the group) is the winner!

    • Countries that start with B

    • Airports named after famous people

    • Categories in school

    • Actors with a stage name

    • Food that is red
