Una guía paso a paso para jugar el juego.

1

All players find a place in the room. Everyone is given a hoop, or a circle is drawn with chalk or taped with sticky tape. Alternatively, players can also be instructed in advance to collect pebbles and use them later to form their circle.

2

Two facilitators stand in their circles and demonstrate the following: they look at each other, nod, and switch places.

3

The group is then asked if they saw clearly what the facilitators were doing.

4

The facilitator gives the following explanation: when you want to switch places, you make eye contact with someone in the group, you nod, and if the other person agrees, they nod back. Then you switch places.

5

The facilitator then gives a start signal.

6

After a few switches, introduce a rule where players must also share a positive affirmation or compliment before switching places (e.g., "I appreciate your smile" or "You did a great job earlier").

7

After several more switches, introduce another layer of complexity:

players must now find a new person to switch with each time, ensuring they do not switch with the same person consecutively.

8

Continue for a few rounds, then introduce a new challenge:

players must now switch places with two people at once, forming small groups and coordinating the switch together.

9

After a few changes, give the command for everyone to return to their own place.

10

Conduct a reflection session with the following questions:

  • - How did the game go?
  • - Was it difficult to make contact with the other players?
  • - How did the added challenges (compliments, new partners, group switches) affect the game?
  • - Did you notice any changes in how you communicated or interacted with others?
  • - How did giving and receiving compliments make you feel?

Variaciones

To make it a little bit more competitive, you can add a tagger.

The tagger tries to tag the other players while they are walking through the room. Everyone is safe within a circle, but only one player per circle is allowed. When tagged, you become the new tagger.

Objetivos de aprendizaje específicos

Practice making eye contact in a playful and safe way.
