Time on roll

Today I spent a long time taking role, as I commented on one answer from each of the students' "Meet Me in 20 Questions" worksheet from last week. I think they appreciated the extra time, and after the first few I joked with the remainders that they were worried about what I would ask them when I got to their turn. I am not sure if it will help me remember their names, which is one of the reasons for doing the activity. The other is to help them feel a sense of connection, and I hope that it does.
