Time: 15 min
Aim: Get to know each other, learn each others’ names.

The participants are sitting in a circle. One begins by saying a positive adjective with the first letter being the same as in his/her name, and then says their first name – eg. Funny Fiona (or Sweet-tempered Sam, Bright Bill, etc.). The person to the left repeats “Funny Fiona”, and then gives an adjective-name combination for him/herself. The person to the left repeats both of the adjective names, and adds their own adjective name. It continues like this, adding more names to remember until the circle is complete.

If the last person remembers all of the names, he/she deserves a big applause!
