This game should ideally be played with all cameras on if the participants are online. 2. The facilitator types in a word or a phrase, one at a time. Examples: strawberry, New York, sky, ball, one year. 3. Participants have 1-2 minutes to write something about themselves associated with the word or phrase - or something they associate with the word or phrase. 4. Facilitator plans a speaking order and sets a timer for 2 minutes. 5. Sentences are shared. 6. The facilitator shares the next word or phrase. 7. After one round or more, there can be a brief reflection before going on to the next word. ### **Reflection** * What was this activity like for you? * Did you discover anything? * How did this activity make you feel? * What did you learn about other people today? #### **Tips** * Depending upon the groups’ level of maturity, a participant could suggest a word and send it to the facilitator. * Depending on the group’s median age, words (like justice, hope, safety, etc.) can be more evocative and challenging, and touch off deeper conversation. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://personal-development.codeyourfuture.io/em-modules/retro-1/connect-me.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
