ReportsAbstract
Here is a good game to play with teenagers or adults during the initial phases of a group when you want the members to work together on a common task or when you are interested in leadership styles among group members. To set this initiative up, you will need an even number of group members (at least four on each side works best, seven per side is about maximum). On the floor or ground, mark off one more space than you have members in your group. Chalk, masking tape, sheets of paper, or anything which allows you to set up one foot squares works well. The squares should be placed an easy step apart. Arrange the squares in a semi-circle to allow for ease in communication among group members..
