- Require physical or mental cooperation By:-Pedro paterno
Simple team building exercises to try with a class or office include trust falls, in which participants are asked to stand with their back to the group and allow themselves to fall backwards, relying on other members of the group to catch them before they hit the ground. Scavenger hunts are also popular, and can be restricted to a small area or expand over an entire city, depending on the level of participation desired. A popular way for people to learn more about each other is "Walk Across the Room," an exercise when the facilitator reads statements such as "I have no siblings," or "I am from a small town" out loud. If the statement is true for a participant, he or she steps forward: if it is false, the participant remains in place. By looking around, people can acquire basic facts about each other.
