SUMMARY
In this activity, each trainee will be given a bingo sheet, which is attached below. This is intended to be a short icebreaker activity which will get participants moving and more familiar with each other. Some squares relate to the continuum of land rights, other squares are about personal lives. It is designed to have participants engage with each other and learn something about fellow participants, i.e. break the ice.
INSTRUCTIONS
- Have a printed bingo sheet prepared for each trainee, pens/pencils, and if possible, small value prizes for each participant when they get ‘Bingo’
- Give each participant a bingo sheet. Participants must then move around the room looking for others to fill in their signature on a square that applies to them until they have ‘Bingo.’ Participants may only sign another’s card once
- Allow between 10-20 minutes for this activity
