Convince Me
"1. Great for teaching your students the art of persuasion.
Bring a bag of candy to class for this one.
Teach the class different ways to convince via persuasion: if…then…, pity, flattery, etc.
Break the class into 2 teams.
To earn candy, a team must be more persuasive than the opposing team. “If you give me the candy, then I will give you 100 dollars.” “I’m too poor to afford candy and I’m starving. Please give me a piece of candy.” “You look very handsome today teacher. So can I have a piece of candy?”
The tactics get pretty hilarious when a piece of candy is on the line."
