A versatile discussion activity for any topic or text, where students complete the blank cards with information about characters to make a case for being 'saved' from a sinking hot air balloon. Instructions and blank character cards are included.

The activity could be completed as a discussion activity where students persuade group members that their character should be saved, or perform in role to support the revision of a text.

It's a great game to use when you cover a variety of topics in your class, thanks much I've been looking for a resource like this for a long time. I'll share my experience when I implement the activity in my classroom.
