Go-Rounds

Go-Rounds are sentence completion statements that each group member shares, one at a time, as they go around the circle. The statements begin light, easy, and safe. As the statements continue, they become deeper and more complex. The group member will discover his/her trust building as the other members share, and as he/she is willing to share more. Group members learn a great deal about each other, and the facilitator is able to quickly learn about each group member. Sample statements are:

* "My favorite color is . . . because . . ."
* "If I could be any animal I would be a . . . because . . ."
* "When I'm happy I . . ."
* "I wish my parents would . . ."
* "To get attention from others I . . ."
* "I cry when . . ."
* "People hurt me the most by . . . "
* "If I could change anything about myself it would be . . ."
