Synopsis

This is a manual for anyone who runs group sessions, answering such questions as: how am I going to get the best out of my group?; how can I sort out things that go wrong?; which type of group is best for me?; what is groupwork?; and what is a group? Following theoretical discussions, the book details nearly 100 activities that explore all these issues and which show at a glance the aims, time, materials and preparation required, followed by the procedure. Some examples are: transforming sound; singing questions; name paint; ritual; teambuilding; ears, eyes and mouth; survival; my favourite words; improvisation; sharing; jungle; musical hoops; space walk; and interviews. The book concludes with some casework anecdotes.
