Lineups


Click for resource
    • Tell the group that they have 30 seconds to line up in the right order  without talking. It is important that people don’t talk at all. No whispering. No reading lips. No writing.
    • Read off the first criterion. Once everyone is in line, check whether people are in the right place.
    • Read another criteria.

Possible criterions: Height, alphabetically by first name, how long it takes you to leave the house in the morning, how late you stay up at night, height, how vegetarian you are, etc.

You can also use this to break up into new groups. After the line-up, choose the first 4 people in line for the 1st table, then next 4 people for the 2nd table, etc.
