There should be no conversation during sculpting. After a minute the coach yells
 freeze. At this point the sculptures give a good hard freeze - no eye movement
or motion whatsoever.
In the beginning, stop the game here and go around and have the sculptors name
their sculptures. The quicker this game is done the more creativity it calls for.
For the double version of the game, when  freeze is called, the sculptors switch
to a different statue and become sculptures that fit with the other sculpture,
guessing at what the other is supposed to be.
For example: I have just sculpted an anteater and freeze is called. The coach says
 switch and I go to another statue that looks to me like an airplane. I become a
double sculpture by becoming a parachuter five feet away from the airplane.
Meanwhile, another sculptor sees my anteater, thinks it is a person bowling, and
becomes a bowling ball. In the end the coach goes around and asks each person
who switched to name the double new sculpture, and asks the original sculptors
what their sculptures were supposed to be.
The second time the sculptors and lumps of clay switch so that everyone gets a
chance to play both roles.
Human Knot:
Everyone in the group stands in a circle facing each other. Have people take their
right hand and grab the right hand of another in the circle. Continue by joining
people s left hands while making sure each team member grabs right and left
hands of two different people. There should be a tangled web of arms amongst
this circle, and the goal is to  unwind this knot, without letting go of hands, until
everyone is once again standing in a circle still holding hands.
Human Tic-Tac-Toe:
Line up chairs in a 3 x 3 tic-tac-toe board formation. Two teams alternate in
placing one team member at a time into a chair. The team with 3 members in a
row wins.
Line Up:
Ask the large group of students to order themselves from oldest to youngest or
from tallest to shortest. An interesting variation on this is to ask them to do it
without any talking.
Pair Up:
People begin by pairing up, leaving one extra person who is the leader. They call
out two body parts that the two people should have connected. Every time there is
a new call, group members must switch partners. For example, if the leader calls
out,  ear to elbow , the ear of one person should find an elbow of a new partner.
Paper Bag Skits:
Compile 4 or 5 random articles per paper bag and divide into groups of 4 or 5.
Each group is asked to plan and put on a skit, using all of the articles in the bag as
props. Skits may be with pantomime or dialogue. All persons must take part.
Another variation is to give each group a problem and ask them to use all of the
props in dramatizing a solution.
Rotating Chair:
Everyone in the group sits down on chairs in a circle. One person volunteers to be
in the middle, leaving an extra chair. The person next to the open chair is
competing with the person in the middle for that open chair so that person moves
to fill it and the next person moves to fill that open chair. Consequently, the open
chair is rotating around the circle while the person in the middle is trying to beat
the circle in filling it.
Team Jigsaw Puzzle:
On a large piece of art paper or poster board, write the name of the team with a
black marker in big balloon letters. Then with a pencil divide the paper up into
jigsaw pieces (one for each member of your team). Cut the jigsaw pieces. At the
meeting, give each team member one piece, and have them decorate it with the
theme the team s issue or project. Then have the team put the jigsaw back
together.
Diversity
The Common Denominator:
Have the group divide up into groups of three. They are assigned to find one
similarity that all three people have in common and one thing that makes each
member of the threesome unique. For example, everyone in the group has a dog at
home but they each have a favorite class that is different from each other.
The Un-common Denominator:
This exercise uses the skill of interviewing to discover diversity. Pair up in a way
that matches people who are as different as possible. Have them interview each
other and find as many differences as they can in how they view things: Where
were you born? What places would you like to visit? How do you spend your
time? What is you favorite or least favorite subject at school? What public issues
interest you? What do you think about....? What is one thing that you are good at
doing? When they have interviewed one another, have them introduce their
partners to the whole group. Let them comment on the differences they
discovered.
Leadership
Blind shapes:
Clear a big area and blindfold everyone in the group. Tie rope ends together and
have each person hold onto a piece of the rope. Ask the group to make
geometrical shapes. Suggest they do it again without talking or with one person
talking.
" How did leadership emerge in this activity and why?
" What is the correlation with leadership and teamwork?
Who starts it?
Form a circle and have one person leave the area. Choose one leader who will
make different motions that are repeated by others in the group. The person who
left the area returns and tries to guess which person is the leader.
" What did it feel like to be the leader, follower, person guessing which is
which?
" How is this applicable to the issue your group is working on and the role
of leadership? [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
