Five! Group work, co-operation, trust building and problem solving 35
Islands An activity that encourages group work and problem solving. What will you need? • Several sheets of large paper or • Chalk. What do you need to look out for? • Sensitivities around physical contact. • People pushing each other off the island. How does it work? • Place several sheets of paper on the ground to represent islands. Alternatively, you can draw islands on the ground with chalk. • Participants 'swim' or walk around the room until a given signal, when they must stand on an island. • Participants move around again and an island is removed. • At the given signal, once again everyone must stand on an island. • The game continues, with an island being removed each time until only one or two are left, depending on the size of the group. • No one must be left outside when the time for standing on an island comes. Adaptation/variation • Draw five circles on the floor with chalk. Give each island a name and ask all the participants to choose the island they would like to live on. Warn participants that one of the islands will sink into the sea and those on the island will have to move quickly onto another island. Allow suspense to build up and then call the name of the island that is sinking. Participants run to the other four islands. Continue this until everyone is squashed onto one island. 36
