ACTIVITIES

For a line of students (the order of the line matters, so next incarnation, the order will be reversed)

Have many pictures of professionals like Teachers, Construction workers, Janitorial workers, Pilots, Lawyers, or Pop star singers. The great majority of pictures should have ordinary professions, and only one or two should be reserved for pop stars or millionaires.
Display them on a table and have students pick the one profession they would have in an incarnation following the order of the line.

The first students in the line would most likely pick the “best” ones, while the last ones wouldn’t have much choice other than what was left. When all students get a profession, have them pretend what their professions are in a circle simultaneously but in an orderly manner.

Ask a few what they would have learned in their reincarnation as a ……
“Construction Worker,” for example, may have Humility, Resilience, hands-on work, etc

Repeat with a different order so that students have different opportunities/professions.

This activity is best played with costumes.
