Assumptions We Make

in Elementary Schools, Middle Schools, Secondary Schools / by Gene Bedley
March 5, 2013

Answer the following questions about your partner without speaking to them or communicating withthem at all. By just looking at them, write down a response you think best fits the question. If you feel uncomfortable about a question, just leave it blank.

1. What kind of music does he/she listen to?

2. Does he/she drink Coke or Pepsi? – Diet or Regular?

3. Is he/she good at math?

4. Does he/she have brothers or sisters? – How many?

5. Does he/she speak other languages?

6. Would he/she be open to bungee jumping?

7. Does he/she have a pet? – What kind?

8. What he/she born in another country? – Where?

9. What is his/her favorite TV program? – Movie?

10. Does he/she have friends from different ethnic groups?

11. If they could make a choice would they go to school or stay home?

12. Is the person respectful of other people different from themselves?

13. Is he/she responsible with their chores?

14. Is he/she into branded clothes to impress others?

15. Is this person successful or will they be successful in school? – In life?

Assumtions are the bases of all misinformation!
