Instructions

1. Have players gather together in the center of the class. Half of the class should be wearing hats.

2. Players begin the game by taking off hats of another player and putting it on their own or someone else's head and correctly emphasizing the pronouns used.

Hey! why did YOU gave me HIS hat.
