Detailed Explanation:
Each student gets a handout of a Palm Reader worksheet.

Each student interviews three of their friends about their future.
Do the first Interview as a class.
The five questions pertain to: 1) children, 2) long life, 3) happiness, 4) intelligence, 5) wealth.
Students record their answers on the worksheet.7As a class, tally the results.
Variations and Options:
- The first interview is just yes/no answers. The second and third they must make a sentence and give more information – Yes, I am. I’m going to have 4 children.
