    This document provides instructions for an activity where volunteers are sent outside while one reads a passage. That person must then relay the passage to the next volunteer without seeing the original, and so on, until the final volunteer shares with the class what they were told. The intent is to demonstrate how a message can become distorted as it is passed between people without the original source.
