To be done:

IN GROUPS

DURATION:

0-30 min

OBJECTIVES:

Group building
Ways of working together

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:

Light stick as long as the group. It is possible to have more than 1 group, playing the game in turn. When a group is not playing, it is observing the others playing in order to reflect and discover the key to reach the result.

STEP BY STEP PROCESS:

Participants stands on both sides of a stick (same number of participants for each side). They have to hold the stick only with two fingers starting from eyes level and never losing the contact with it! Once participants are in position, the facilitator places the stick on their fingers. They have to move it SLOWLY towards the floor without letting go off the stick and keeping always the contact between all participants’ fingers and sticks.
If the stick goes off, they can try again till when they will reach the result thanks to a good group interaction.

OUTCOMES:

Chaperons use the activity to favour a good group dynamics.

EVALUATION:

No evaluation is foreseen for this exercise
