Activity
Find something in common
A gentle way to meet people who like some of the same things.
We are still checking this guide. It is a draft. How we check our work
The main idea
Let people write, draw, talk, or watch. There is more than one way to join in.
- Time
- 15 to 25 minutes
- Group
- 6 to 20 people
- Place
- Indoors or outdoors
- What you need
- Paper, pens, and a table
Part 1
Get ready
Put out paper and pens. Ask people to think of something they like, something they want to learn, and something they can share.
They can write, draw, or skip a question.
Part 2
Try it together
- Give everyone a few quiet minutes
- Let people put their pages on a table
- Look for something two people both like
- Invite people to chat in pairs
- Let people share with the whole group if they want to
Part 3
Help everyone join
Read the questions aloud if that helps. Offer to write for someone. No one has to share private details.
At the end, ask if there is something the group would like to try together.
