Have a small group of students hold hands in a straight line, all facing in the same direction. The person at the end puts their hand up against a wall or holds onto a pole. The task is for everyone, including the person with their hand around the pole or up against the wall, to end up with their arms folded across their chest. None of the students can let go of their hands and the person at the end must keep his/her hand on the wall or pole. Give students plenty of time to discuss possible strategies and solutions. Discuss how ‘trust’ played a role in the game.
