Before viewing Fauxbook profile pages for our French-speakers, assemble groups of three personalities. Put their passport pages up to view. Make three statements regarding information from the Activities and Interests section of their Fauxbook profile (which students HAVE NOT YET SEEN.) For example, show the passports of Céline Dion, Claude Monet, and Tony Parker. Then say the following sentences:
J'aime jouer au basket. J'aime peindre. J'aime chanter.
/ I like to play basketball. I like to paint. I like to sing.
Based only on the information in the passports (unless students have background information that they will of course use) have students guess who said which statement. Varying your groupings will produce different results; you want to exploit the groupings for what will surprise students the most.
Keep tally of which figures people guessed correctly and incorrectly. Observe and briefly discuss (in English) why figures who stumped students did so. The conversation should head toward the idea that sometimes the basic information may be misleading, as we learn not to judge books by their covers.
Now we are ready to explore our personalities further through explicit introduction of the Fauxbook pages.
