To be done:

IN PLENARY

DURATION:

0-30 min

OBJECTIVES:

When people look sleepy or tired, it can be used to get people moving and to give them more enthusiasm.

METHODOLOGY:

Every proposed activity (simulations, games, knowing each other games, sharing in small groups…) mainly aims at building an experience that can become a suggestion , a metaphorical bridge towards new activities and future experiences, keeping on growing and exploring. The active methodology refers to the development of the human being, as a process without a specific age span, but as continue evolution, based on lifelong learning.

MATERIALS AND RESOURCES NEEDED:

No materials are required.

STEP BY STEP PROCESS:

Participants stand in a circle. One person volunteer to leave the room. After he/she leaves, the rest of the group choose a ‘leader’, the orchestra director. The leader must perform a series of actions and sounds, such as clapping, tapping a foot, etc, that are copied by the whole group. The volunteer comes back into the room, stands in the middle and tries to guess who is leading the actions. The group protects the leader by not looking at him/her. The leader must change the actions at regular intervals, without getting caught. When the volunteer spots the leader, he/she join the circle, and the person who was the leader leaves the room to allow the group to choose a new leader.

OUTCOMES:

Energize the group before or during the workshop

EVALUATION:

No evaluation is foreseen for this exercise
