This document provides instructions for several icebreaker activities that can be used with large groups to help people mingle and get to know each other better. The activities include having people find matching cards, discussing topics in different configurations, an "Ask Me About" activity using post-it notes, a candy bar name matching game, a coin toss activity, a conversation wheel where partners discuss questions, an eyeball tag game, and more. The document aims to give leaders ideas for fun, engaging icebreakers to facilitate introductions and conversations in groups.
The document provides guidance on various exercises and activities for getting to know each other and building rapport within a group. It describes exercises involving sharing names and backgrounds in pairs or circles, as well as interactive games using props like balls of wool or sheets with personal facts. The goal is to help all individuals feel valued and comfortable before delving into more substantive topics, as open communication and acceptance of differences are important for the work. Diagrams and instructions are provided for a "Personal Shield" and "Human Bingo" game as further optional activities.

This document provides instructions for activities to help group members get to know each other better at the start of a workshop. It describes five main activities:
1) Having group members introduce themselves and share something about their first name.
2) Pairing people up to talk and learn about each other for 5 minutes then introduce their partner.
3) Forming a circle and passing a ball of wool while saying their name and other details to connect everyone.
4) Going around the circle saying their name and what they would rather do with their life to learn names and more about others.
5) Creating a "I AM..." sheet to write 3 things about themselves that are not obvious and share by
This exercise simulates scientists in a desert trying to fill a cup with water from an oasis without stepping in the circle using only ropes. Participants have 20 minutes to complete the task. The debriefing will focus on the group's strategy, communication, and roles. Key questions will examine how the strategy evolved and changed, how communication flowed within and between groups, and what roles emerged with the leader and followers. The goal is to understand challenges of cooperation, leadership, and group dynamics.
1) The document describes several team building games that involve physical movement, coordination, and communication.
2) Many of the games involve forming groups or lines and passing objects between players within certain parameters or while performing actions.
3) The games are designed to encourage interaction, build familiarity between participants, and promote cooperation through collaborative tasks.
The document provides 30 icebreaker activities that can be done while seated. The activities include having participants write unusual facts about themselves on index cards to be guessed, name games involving alliteration or objects they bring on a picnic, partner activities like building towers out of straws or thumb wrestling, and group activities like guessing lies among truths or passing around candy and stating facts about oneself for each piece taken. The icebreakers are intended to help participants learn each other's names and share personal details to build rapport within a group.
This document provides an overview of icebreakers - introductory activities used to help groups learn each other's names and get comfortable interacting. It discusses the purposes of icebreakers, including getting acquainted, introducing topics, building teams, and energizing groups. The document also provides tips for facilitators on choosing the right icebreaker for the group's goals and needs, facilitating the activity, and debriefing afterwards. Examples of common icebreakers are also described.
This document provides instructions and guidance for team building exercises focused on getting to know each other, building trust through physical closeness activities, and cooperating to solve group tasks. The exercises include personal crests, intimate interviews, trust walks, trust falls, aeroplanes, human knots, back-to-back activities, and a perfect squares puzzle to encourage cooperation without verbal communication. Guidance is given for facilitators on discussing experiences to translate lessons to real work team situations.
This document outlines a 1.5 hour session to help a newly formed team get to know each other and establish norms for working together effectively. The session includes icebreakers like writing descriptive words about teammates and a team personality test. Participants discuss experiences from successful past teams and brainstorm rules, success factors, and personal commitments to recreate positive team dynamics and feelings. The goals are for members to connect with each other, understand their interactions and personalities, and set a foundation for effective collaboration.
This document provides descriptions of several team building activities with varying levels of physical activity and risk. Some of the activities described include:
- Standing up from a back-to-back sitting position with partners to demonstrate cooperation and coordination.
- Forming a "human knot" by joining hands with other group members not standing next to you and then untangling the knot, requiring collaboration to solve.
- One group acts as a "taffy pulling machine" to gently pull another group holding hands in a circle in an attempt to stretch the "taffy" into human-sized pieces in a display of cohesion.
- Sitting back-to-back in a tight circle and then
Crew members were stranded 200 miles from their rendezvous point on the moon and needed to rank 15 survival items to make the journey. The two oxygen tanks were ranked as the most critical by NASA since oxygen is essential for survival and weight is not an issue on the moon. Food concentrate and water were also highly ranked. The box of matches and magnetic compass were considered virtually useless since there is no oxygen on the moon for fires and the moon does not have a magnetic field for navigation.
The 90-minute training aims to get 20 first and second year students between 19-21 years old to remember at least 5 names from the group. It uses interactive exercises like drawing common interests, passing water between glasses without spilling, and forming human pyramids to get participants out of their comfort zones and build rapport. The training concludes by checking if learning objectives were met and gathering feedback.
1. The document describes an exercise where groups of 5 people are tasked with assembling puzzle pieces into squares of equal size without verbal communication.
2. Each group member is given pieces in an envelope to assemble their square, with the goal being to complete all squares at the same time since the task is not finished until all are equal in size.
3. Observers monitor the groups and take note of non-verbal communication attempts and how group members help or do not help each other reach the goal within the time limit.
This document outlines an outdoor exercise to demonstrate leadership elements like participation and developing a shared vision. It involves two instructors leading blindfolded workers to move an object from one area to another using only verbal instructions.
The instructors are tasked with developing a strategy to guide the blindfolded workers without direct contact. Workers must rely completely on the instructors' guidance and feedback.
After completing the task, participants discuss their experiences as instructors or workers. Questions focus on delegation, developing strategy, managing limitations, and clarity of communication. The goal is for participants to reflect on effective leadership and teamwork, especially when facing challenges.
This document outlines an outdoor exercise involving entering a computer code to stop a virus. Participants must work as a team to touch numbered plates in order from 1-50 within the activity area without multiple people entering at once. The code may need to be entered repeatedly and variations like removed numbers add difficulty. After, facilitators focus the debriefing on discussing team strategies, communication, conflicts around values and priorities, and willingness to start without full planning. The goal is to build creativity, teamwork, and adaptive thinking under pressure.
