Actors are students of people. They watch and observe even the simplest details about a person, and use those details to create believable characters. This exercise tests a student’s observational skills.
Pair up, and ask the students to take 60 seconds and really study their partner – everything about them.
Then have the partners turn their backs to each other and change three things about themselves. It could be as simple as untying a shoelace, or switching a bracelet from one arm to the other, or unbuttoning a single button.
After a minute, ask the students to face each other again and see if they can guess what three things were changed by their partner.
