One or the Other: Form a large circle, facing into the centre. Pose a Are You More Like… question, and invite those who identify with the first object to take one step into the circle, or if they identify with the second object, to step out of the circle. Allow ample time between each question for thinking time, as well as time for people to observe who else made a similar choice. Mix & Mingle: Create a set of Are You More Like… questions (both parts) onto index cards for each person in your group. Similar to Ice-Breaker Question Exchange, form into random pairs and invite each partner to ask the other the question on their card, and vice versa. The key is that each person may answer the question anyway they choose. At the end of this exchange, partners swap cards and then seek out a new partner to start over. Continue for 10+ minutes. Guess Who? Distribute a sheet of paper and pen to each person in your group. Choose and announce one interesting or intriguing Are You More Like… question, eg OCEAN – MOUNTAINS. Instruct each person to write the statement or characteristic they like at the top of their paper, and then write three reasons why they are like this characteristic. Then, halfway down the paper, each person writes the statement they do not like and writes three reasons why they are not like this characteristic. Collect all of the papers, and shuffle. One by one, read the statements on each sheet of paper, and challenge your group to identify who the person is. If several people are potential candidates, perform a quick vote, before asking the person who actually wrote the statements to reveal themselves. © copyright playmeo.com - world's largest online database of group games & activities
