Hi, Out of all the suggestions, I can suggest to you how to start this session of Active Listening. Try and play this game with the group. Pick one person randomly and tell him a word, for example, "Umbrella." Now, he has to describe the same to others using code language:
- He can use only alphabets with direction
- Geometrical figures with positions.
Let the team scribble whatever they can interpret and then declare the winner as the one who could draw the figure. Try this out:
1. Make the concave semi-circle
2. Join the two ends with multiple semi-circles of a small radius
3. With the centermost small semi-circle, drop an alphabet 'j'
4. On the top of the big semicircle, place a cone.
This will surely trigger their minds and ears to focus on the objective of the lecture. Good wishes, Ankita Puri
