Voices in the Head

This is a great activity for students to explore thoughts and feelings of others. In this activity the teacher chooses a character that will be the main focus. This character has a problem and is listening in their head to what the other people around them would tell them to do. The students will then sit around in a circle as the voices in the characters head and one at a time will say what they feel the character should do from either the whole class as one character's point of view or students having different characters point of view. As a teacher this activity can be used to accomplish the language expectation of points of view as well as a great opportunity for students to look at moral dilemmas and problem solving.
