Group building and support Cooperation
Ways of working together
1. Build the web (max. 1,60 m of height, 5 m wide between the posts, should include different holes where persons can pass through)
2. Task: The whole group has to reach the other side of the spider web by passing through its different gaps or over it. There’s a maximum amount of people, who are allowed to pass through one gap (e.g. 6 gaps – 3 per gap = 18 people). You’re not allowed to use any additional material, either to go back or to touch the web. There’s no time limit, the group has to solve the task together.
3. Questions for Debriefing:
How do you feel?
What was difficult?
What was helpfull for the solution?
How far have you been involved in this activity?
Which conclusions can be drawn from this exercise for the group?
