Who in this class superlatives practice

Ask a question about who is number one in the class in some way with questions like those below. Wait until everyone has guessed who by saying “Me”, “Juan”, etc, then ask each person a question to check, e.g. “How tall are you?” or “Can you stand up?” to check if the question was “In this class, who is the tallest?” Each person who guessed correctly gets one point.
