(10 minutes, easy set-up)
Students will try to identify each other from clues given.
Provide an index card and pen for each student.
Divide students into two large groups and give each student an index card and a pen. Instruct each student in the first group to list on their index card three things about themselves that everyone should recognize. Instruct each student in the second group to list on their index card three things about themselves that most people would not know about them. After a minute or so, instruct each group to gather their cards, and then swap their stack of cards with the other group.
Instruct groups to work together to identify the person described on each index card, one at a time. After several minutes, call groups together and see how many identifications each group has made. Ask: Which group had the easier time––the group that had the easy clues or the group that had the hidden clues? Why? (The group with the cards containing the obvious clues should have had the easier time identifying each person.) Share that the people who saw Jesus enter into Jerusalem had to determine His identity from what they had seen, what they had heard, and from what He told them.
