Game "My Good Intentions" (HO3). Гра "Мої наміри".
Вчитель роздає учням картки з переліком намірів. Кожен учень уявляє собі, що приймає рішення напередодні Нового року, та робить позначки поряд з п’ятьма намірами, що відповідають його власним. В останніх рядках учень може написати свої особисті. Потім учні підходять один до одного, розповідаючи про свої наміри і розпитуючи про них інших. Мета такого спілкування — знайти того, у кого принаймні три наміри збігаються з його власними. Знайшовши свого партнера, учні сідають і уявляють собі, що рік уже минув, і вони розпитують, що саме вдалося здійснити, що ні, а що було здійснити найскладніше. Потім у бесіді вчитель з’ясовує, хто з учнів знайшов партнера, хто ні, які наміри в них виявились спільними.
