Strong friendships are built on genuine interest in one another. When we ask thoughtful questions about what others enjoy, we show that we care about them as people. In this lesson, students will use paper fortune tellers filled with questions about media and technology interests to practice being curious about their peers in positive, meaningful ways. Through guided conversations, students will discover how asking questions and listening carefully help us understand what makes each person special.
