Four beats pass

How to run it

Time

8–10 minutes

Materials

One printed set of four cards per group, pens.

1. Print one set per four students. Hand each person one beat.
2. Say the framing once: four beats, one morning. No lecture after that.
3. Each student writes one sentence: “This beat should feel like ______ this year.”
4. Read the four sentences. Keep the cards on the board for the rest of the week.

Works in later years

The four beats are the mixer, not an Old Testament unit. Reuse the same cards every year.
