In my ongoing attempt at turning any and every party game into an ESS activity, I present to yuo Loaded Questions.
Materials Needed:
A piece of paper for each person in your ESS club.
Numerous smaller pieces of paper for each member of your club.
How to play: Present the students with an open-ended question. Have them write their answers on a smaller piece of paper (you do it to) and collect all of the pieces of paper once they've finished. Have the students number their larger paper horizontally - up to the number of players playing. Read through all of the answers to the question. Each student must try to decide who they thought wrote which answer. Read through the answers again and have the students write down who they thought wrote what. Then go through and find out who wrote what - a student gets a point for every answer they were right on.
Questions (Some I thought up and some I looked up online that are used in the actual game):

Daniela: ESS is the English Speaking Society - The English Club that a lot of schools (but not all) have.
Ryan, frankly I am astonished and appalled that you would suggest such a game that is blatantly inappropriate for the age group at hand. I am truly truly disappointed in your judgment. Truly.
Kyle and Tara - Let me know how it goes. I was going to use it yesterday, but through a miscommunication we didn't have ESS, so it's going to wait until next week.
In all honesty, Justn, you truly have my humblest appologies as at times i am wont to act without truly rendering my thoughts and the potential consequences. Truly sir, you have set me upon the path of righteousness and honestly I would like to retract my previous comment, Honestly.
gold!
this activity is golden.
i will definitely use this in my ESS clubs.
