Swap the Roles: A Public-Notice Reading Checklist for a Mixed-Age Group
Original feature This original activity invites a mixed-age group to swap roles during a public-notice reading exercise. Begin by selecting a short public-notice text, such as a community event announcement or a local policy update. Divide the group into pairs, assigning one person to read aloud and the other to take notes.
After reading, swap roles and repeat. Encourage participants to ask questions like, 'What details are most important?' or 'How might this affect different age groups?' For added depth, have one person act as a 'community member' and the other as a 'city planner' to interpret the notice from different perspectives.
Optional: Create a shared checklist of key points to ensure everyone understands the notice. This activity promotes empathy, collaboration, and critical thinking across generations.
