Encourage them to agree on a minimum of 3 key values. Ask them to provide examples or explanations for the values proposed, and provide a brief summary of the points that are brought up. If the activity is being conducted indoors, you should write the values up on the whiteboard. If the activity is taking place outdoors, encourage them to repeat the values out loud a few times, to make sure that they memorise them. Note for Trainer: Stress the importance of respecting the values and norms that have been agreed upon. Mention that failure to do so, will result in being excluded from the game. Activity 2 Encourage learners to pick a pair; if you are familiar with the group dynamics, try to ensure that the game is an opportunity for learners to get to know each other (i.e. try to avoid exclusion and enable the creation of new bonds).
