Activity: Presentations of River of Life stories (25 min)

Step 1:

Place the learners in pairs.

Step 2:

In pairs, learners take turns to present their River of Life.

Step 3:

The learners must listen to their partners and not interject or ask questions after or during the presentations. Give each learner 10 minutes to present, and then tell the learners to swap.

Step 4:

After both have explained their River of Life, the learners should write on a piece of paper one similarity they recognise between their own and their partner’s story. 

Step 5:
Learners each share what they have written on their paper with their partner.
