Group Size: Any Duration: 5–10 minutes Materials: None
Objectives: Improve vocabulary and language recall Develop quick thinking and response speed Strengthen attention and focus Encourage participation in low-pressure settings Support turn-taking skills
Instructions: Participants sit or stand in a circle. One person says a word. The next participant must say a new word starting with the last letter of the previous word. Continue around the group.
Adaptations for Neurodiversity:
- Allow extra response time
- Use categories (e.g., animals, countries)
- Allow passing without elimination
- Provide visual support if needed
- Reduce time pressure
Sensory and Safety Considerations: Low sensory load. Fast pace may create mild pressure.
Facilitator Notes: Focus on flow rather than correctness.
