Fifth activity

(This needs a blindfold - a sweatshirt will do)

"The purpose of this activity is to prove how well we know each other."

  • Ask for a sweatshirt from the group to be used as a blindfold
  • Ask for a volunteer
  • Blindfold them (with care)
  • Ask the rest of the group to silently change places
  • Say to the volunteer, "I am going to ask members of the group to say something; you have to tell me who you think is speaking."
  • Point to each member of the group in turn. Ask them to say, "Greetings, your majesty."
  • If there's time, everybody can have a go
  • Is it still possible to identify them if they change their voice?
  • Discuss: how do we learn somebody's voice without trying

Thank them for working with you and making your job easier
