At drama club
The drama leader asks everyone to say their name and a fact about themselves. Speaking to the group is very hard for you today.
What could you do?
Three things you could say. None of them is the one right answer; each note says why it fits the moment, or why it may not.
Ask the leader before: "Can I write mine on a card and you read it?"
A strong fit
Your fact gets shared, in your words, without you speaking to the room.
Ask to go last.
Also works here
Going last gives you time. You may still want a card in case.
Say nothing when it is your turn and feel awful.
Worth a second look
You can. It passes the turn but your fact never gets shared.
What people here usually expect
- Leaders are used to kids who do not want to speak to the group. Asking before is normal.
- Going last is a fine choice.
- A card counts as joining in.
Your words
Write the card you would hand to a leader instead of speaking.
In the app you write one line here and it lands in your lines. Nothing is graded.
The move this moment practises: A way to say it.
