Sample text
The participants walk around the room and begin to take on characteristics of the animal they have been given (without making any sounds). Now tell the group to observe the other animals and begin to interact with them. Finally, the group should try to identify their pair. When they have joined with them, they both leave the game, without talking or revealing their identity to their partner. When everyone has found their partner, ask everyone to check that they have found the right animal pair.
Ask the group to follow instructions without speaking, for example: Sit down! Walk around the room! Take two chairs and put them in the middle of the room! FROM THE FIELD When I used this exercise, the group couldn’t move together from one side of the room to the other. I talked about this with the group and we realised that relationships in the group weren’t very good, there were different, conflicting leaders. After this exercise, we were able to work on this problem. 46 OBJECTIVES FOCUS ENERGY NUMBERS DURATION MATERIAL STAGES MIRRORS Warm up Working together Low Medium 2+ 10 min None Ask the group to divide into pairs (A and B).
