In particular we’ll focus on how to:
1: Communicate effectively
2: Be well organised
Communication
Verbal communication
giving clear instructions
use of terminology

Organisation
Mirror Drawing
Player A draws a picture, pattern or random shapes, ensuring player B doesn’t see,
Player A will then describe their drawing, so that player B can draw an exact replica, just by following their verbal instructions,
After a set time, the two learners can compare their pictures to see how successfully the instructions were given and interpreted.
Which communication methods were used during the activity?
What did you learn about communicating with others?
How will you use this knowledge when you lead others?
