ABSTRACT

As the facilitator starts playing music, participants get a partner, introduce themselves, and talk for a while. After a minute or two, the facilitator stops the music and participants stop talking, turn, and find another partner. As this continues, the intervals between the music sessions become shorter and shorter. Have a tape or CD player set up and ready to play music during the game. When the music begins, participants must turn, get a partner, introduce themselves and talk. Have a tape or CD player set up and ready to play music during the game. Have a theme for the class and use it throughout the training. For this activity, use music related to the theme and have the theme reflected on participant nametags and any other printed materials. Print a listing of participant names and information on brightly coloured paper and display the class motif or theme on the paper in some way.
