"anything"

this is an icebreaker I use just before I start my lesson. everyone stand in a circle. the first student shouts, "anything" the next student shouts "like what?"
the third "animals". any category is ok. example
1st studend "anything"
2nd student "Like what"
3rd student " boys names
4th student " peter"
5th and so on must shout any boys name they know until some1 decides to change and say "that's all. then the student next to that one starts from the begining...anything then the circle goes on "like what"......"animals".......sheep, donkey and so on. everyone must clap 2 times to make a rythm. clap.clap "anything" clap.clap,clap..."like what" and so on. 1 mistake, you sitdown until 1/2 students remain then they get a candy or anything.
thaks for the idea.. i love it, and want to try it.. but i cant understand the 2 claps. is it like this?

anything (clap,clap)
like what (clap,clap)
animals (clap,clap)
dog (clap,clap)
chicken (clap,clap) and so on...
that's all (clap,clap) (then back to anything)

Two Truths and a Lie. Have the students say three things about themselves. 2 things are true and one thing is a lie. The rest of the students have to guess what is the lie. This is a great way to get to know your students and for them to share fun facts about themselves.
