How We Differ

Time Allowance: 30 Minutes

Equipment Needed: Make copies of the questions on the next page so that each small group gets only one. Less Paper = More Talk.

1. Divide your original group into grouplets of 3-5 depending on the total number of
participants.

2. Ask the teams to find the differences in group members by adding scores for each category listed below

3. Then add up their scores and compare final totals if they want to. At some point, ask them which was more fun; participating, talking, sharing, laughing -- or winning.
