Props • Prepare a box full of random objects, e.g., a roll of duct tape, a coffee mug, a pillow, a frisbee, a computer mouse, a piece of rope.
Sitting in a circle, select one of the items and demonstrate how it could be used as something completely different from what it actually is, e.g., if the object is a frisbee, you could pick it up and pretend you were driving a car with the frisbee as a steering wheel.
Pass the selected item around the circle. Each student should use it in a different creative way. When everyone has had a turn with one object, switch to a new one.
