Shared Map

Group Size: 6–20 participants Duration: 50 minutes Materials: Large paper, markers

Objectives:

  • Encourage collaboration
  • Develop creative expression
  • Strengthen group cohesion
  • Support visual communication
  • Promote shared decision-making

Instructions: Participants take turns adding elements to a shared drawing based on a theme. The group gradually builds a collective scene.

Adaptations for Neurodiversity:

  • Provide clear theme
  • Allow individual sections
  • Offer visual examples
  • Reduce pressure for artistic skill
  • Allow verbal contribution instead of drawing

Sensory and Safety Considerations: Low sensory load.

Facilitator Notes: Focus on collaboration, not artistic quality.
