Get your class talking - THE LIFEBOAT 1/4
This life and death role play activity will get your class actively involved in discussing, collaborating, deciding, evaluating, negotiating, compromising, pleading, bribing, conspiring, betraying - you name it, but all in fun. This is the ultimate communicative activity. In this role play, there are 8 people (of various descriptions) in a lifeboat. There isn´t enough water and unless two people are sacrificed, everyone will die. Two people must be thrown overboard (into the shark infested water) so that the others can live. Sorry for splitting up the document, but it was way too big! Enjoy!

I was about to use this but then I realized it´s too soon after the Sewol tragedy. Close one.
