6. paradox
- a seemingly absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition that when investigated or explained may prove to be well founded or true.
Another well-known example of a paradox is the Liar paradox, which offers up the simple sentence: “This statement is false.” If this is true, then the sentence is false, but if the sentence states that it is false, and it is false, then it must also be true! So the sentence is both true and not true at the same time

7. I have, who has DIRECTIONS: You’ll receive a strip of paper.
The first line says “I have…”
Respond with this line when you hear someone make a statement that begins with the words “Who has…” and the statement describes or defines the word or character you have.
After you’ve read your “I have…” statement, read your “Who has…” statement.
EXAMPLE:
Student 1: Who has the name of the author who wrote Romeo and Juliet?
Student 2: I have William Shakespeare.
Who has the name of Mrs. Williamson’s favorite ice cream?
5. Continue until all cards have been read.
