  1. Broken Circles Pieces marked with multiple letters are used in different envelopes depending on the number of people in a group.

  2. The Non Functioning Group Member Before we start a group activity, lets consider the impact of a negative person in a group. If we had a non productive group they may have some of following individual names causing problems (The Racecar, The Dominator, The Goofball, The Excluder, The Spoiler, and The Slacker) … • What might the person be doing to bring the group down? • What body language might this person be using to communicate their negative role? • Why might this person act in such a way? • How might others respond to this person? • What are some things other group members could do to help the group move cooperatively?

  3. Broken Circles • The object of the exercise is to put the pieces together in such a way that each member of your group ends up with a complete circle. • There are a few rules…

  4. Broken Circles Rules • This exercise must be played in complete silence. No talking! • You may not point or signal players with your hands in any way • Each player must put together his or her own circle. No one else may show a player how to do it or do it for him or her. • This is an exercise in giving. You may not take a piece from another player, but you may give your pieces, one at a time, to any other member of your group and other group members may give pieces to you. • You may not place a piece in another person’s puzzle; players must complete only their own puzzles. Instead, hand the pieces to the other player, or place it beside the other pieces in front of him/her

  5. Debrief • What do you think that the game was all about? • How do you feel about what happened in your group today? • What things did you do in your group that helped you to be successful in solving the problem? • What things did you do to make it harder? • What could the groups do better in the future?
