Ask the students to place themselves making a line, like a queue. Then tell them that they have to order themselves according to their age, from the youngest to the oldest. For this they have to ask questions among themselves and move along the line. They have three minutes. Taking into account that all the students are in the same course, the question 'How old are you?' won't be enough. They will have to ask 'When were you born?' and answer the exact day and month.
