So I have a riddle for you.
What has two hands but cannot clap?
I'll tell you the answer to that in just a moment.
So in case you're wondering what has two hands but cannot clap.
That is a riddle.
And the answer to that riddle is a clock.
Because a clock has two hands that move around and tell us the time.
But it cannot clap like that.
Today, we have a super-fun video.
At least, I think it's fun.
I think it's fun too
Yeah. Because it's an activity that you can do as a teacher.
You can do it in the classroom with your students as an icebreaker.
But it's also something that stimulates your mind.
It's also a very good listening activity.
And a great way to practice your creative thinking skills.
To expand your vocabulary and just to improve your speaking.
So what we're going to do is ask each other some riddles.
So we would like you to play along.
And we will ask you the riddles.
And we will put them up there so you can see them in writing.
And then after a few moments, we will give you the answer.
Because we are going to try and guess what each other's riddles are.
I am very worried because I think I am very bad at riddles.
No, I am too. I'm not very good.
We'll see how we do. Are you ready?
Yep.
Definitely ready.
Do you want to go first or do you want to...
We always have this question. Yeah, I'll ask you first okay.
Okay, number one.
What kind of dog never bites?
So this is the point where you guys try guess as well.
Don't Google it.
I think I know that one.
I would have to say a hot dog
You're right.
Is that right?
Yeah, that's right.
And now I'm a little hungry.
I have one for you.
Actually, now that I...okay, all right. This is a this is a good one.
What word in the English language is pronounced poorly even by academic scholars?
So what word in the English language is pronounced poorly even by academic scholars.
It doesn't matter if it's an academic scholar.
Smartest people in the world.
Best students. Best teachers.
This word is pronounced poorly.
Do you want me to read it again?
Oh, no. I know it. I know it.
What?
Poorly.
Yes. Yes.
Good job! Well done.
Okay, this...do you want an easier one or harder one?
You choose. It just...doesn't matter.
Okay, I'll give you an easy one.
How many months have 28 days?
It'd just be one month, which is February.
Is that your final answer?
So one? Is that your final answer?
Yeah.
Boom. No. All of them have 28 days.
I thought it was easy.
Oh, that's really funny.
I love this game.
Oh gosh.
Alright, so this one...are you ready?
Yes.
Okay.
How many didn't?
What?
What? What?
Alright, I'll read it again.
Wait.
Ah, 20 ate chickens. Okay.
So I'm guessing 10 didn't.
Yeah, you got it.
Twenty ate chickens. A little bit of a play on words.
Okay, so the score, if anyone is keeping this score, is two to one.
Oh gosh. Some of these are a little difficult now that I look at them.
That's fine.
What do tigers have that no other animals have?
Do you guys know?
There's a trick. It's tricky.
That's why, you know, I'm trying to think of like...what do Tigers have that no other animals have
I don't know. A cereal. Tony the Tiger.
He has his own cereal. Frosted Flakes.
Who's Tony the Tiger?
Frosted Flakes.
What about Cheerios?
No, it has nothing to do with cereal or any kind of food product.
Should I tell you the answer?
Yeah. What is it?
Could you guys guess it?
What do you think?
Do they have...that no other animals have...baby tigers.
They have baby tigers.
Okay. Alright.
Okay. Are you ready?
I'm scared.
I'm going to think of a hard one now.
Yeah.
If you have me you want to share me, if you share me then you don't have me.
I don't know.
If you have me you want to share me, if you share me then you don't have me.
Other than me.
That would be my only guess.
But I don't...I don't think that's the right answer.
Do you want a hint?
Well think about what do people have that they really want to share with other people.
But they can't.
Or they shouldn't.
Love.
No, you're close. It's something...it's not like something...
Patience.
It's not something physical that you can give to somebody else.
What do you share with other people?
You share something. You have it. You want to share it.
You shouldn't share it most of the time.
Information.
What?
Is it called information?
No, no, no. That's not the answer.
It is information that you're sharing.
News.
No.
A secret.
If you have a secret, you want to share a secret.
But once you share the secret, it's no longer a secret
Fine, I'll give you a harder one too, then.
Okay.
Maybe it's not hard. Let's see. Let's see.
What can you hold in your left hand, but not in your right hand?
Your...I don't know. I'm thinking like...what your...?
Your left palm.
But you can't hold that with your right hand?
Your left...I guess you could.
Your your left fingers.
Your left...
You can't hold...oh, you can't hold your right hand.
There we go!
Good job!
Had to think about that one.
It took a while.
Are you guys getting these? Are you guessing them?
Are you guessing them right?
Alright you ready for the next one?
Yes, yes, I am.
What loses its head in the morning and gets it back at night?
What?
What what loses its head in the morning, but gets it back at night?
Loses its head?
Do you want a hint?
Something about the sun or something.
Do you want a hint?
Yeah.
It's not like a person or an animal.
No, I figured it was the sun or something.
Where's your head in the morning, and where's your head at night?
Oh, a pillow!
So as you can see that we had some fun. We both did about the same.
Yeah. Some of those were challenging.
Yeah, we didn't do very well, but...
But we hope that you can see how these can be useful
