I recall that my 7th grade Language Arts teacher did NOT sit us alphabetically by last name. We would be reading some novel, and then she'd say a sentence regarding that novel to the person sitting in the first seat in the front row. That student was then instructed to pass the sentence verbatim to the student behind him or her. So by the time the sentence got through all 30 kids in the class, it was...well, it was no longer a sentence. It had morphed into a story so far off from what the original sentence was.As the majority of my class was ethnically Chinese, I don't think we understood the origin of "Chinese Whispers."
