Practice Question
A teacher passes out twenty slips of paper half with the beginnings of ten different jokes and half with the corresponding punch lines-to twenty students. Students are then asked to mingle and converse until each has found the student whose paper corresponds with his or her own and until everyone has learned one new fact about his or her partner. Which of the following best explains a primary benefit of the activity?
Answer Choices
- A: It improves students' inferential reading comprehension.
- B: It helps students learn to integrate humor into their writing.
- C: It gives students an opportunity to work on expressing their opinions clearly.
- D: It allows students to practice communicating with diverse partners.
Correct Answer: D
