When: This is a good activity to do before starting the lesson. 

With the class: This activity helps the leaders of a group interact equally with every member of the team while assessing their own strengths and weaknesses as leaders. Divide the group into sets of five to ten people each. Choose a leader of each group and whisper a shape in his ear. The leader must get his group to form that shape without speaking or pulling people into position. The leader may only gesture or touch. If there is time, rotate until everyone has had a chance to be a leader.

Class question: How hard is it to lead a group without using verbal commands?

Homework Activity: Bring in some newspaper articles about people who you think have integrity and people who you think who do not. What distinguishes one from the other? Who gets more play in the media?
