If they don't, continue till the right answer is found. Each student can read his part only twice. When all questions and answers are matched ask the pairs to read the riddle they have just for fun.<br />Some Suggested Riddles:QUESTIONSANSWERSWhat animal is gray and has a trunk?A mouse going on vacationWhat animal eats and drinks with its tail?All do.
