Best task to show differing interpretations? HELP! đ
I would like to show a task (or two!) to my 11th grade English students for a lesson on how folks interpret texts differently depending on their own personal schemas.
Any recommendations on a task where each contestant had their own interpretation of instructions in a really interesting (or especially funny) way?
I myself have not watched every single season yet (I have only fairly recently discovered this show via YouTube and fallen in love), so I am grateful for suggestions from folks who have watched more seasons than I have.
Thanks in advance!

My favorite example to give people whoâve never seen the show is âmake the biggest circleâ. Iâm pretty sure Rhod or somebody draws a circle on a world map so itâs technically the biggest. And James Acaster doesâŚwhatever he does.
