Values Games

19/3/2013

0 Comments

 
Working with Values can be a respectful and enjoyable way of looking at what's important for each student.
Equipment

'Value Cards', i.e. words written on cards (about 200 of them)

VALUES AUCTION

Aim - written on a Poster - Collect 5 Values Cards with the values that you can stand for
Subtitle, 'Some Values are given to you, the others you will have to fight for'

Start
All the Players get 5 values on arrival at the 'Auction', preferably with a little 'ritual'.

The Auctioneer presents the remaining Values Cards to the Players, one at the time.

As each Value Card is presented the Players bid for the card they want by describing the importance of the value in their lives.

The Auctioneer chooses the Player with the most compelling reason and swaps the presented Value Card with one of the winning Player's offered Value Cards.

The Auctioneer continues to present the remaining Values Cards until they have all been presented, or until time runs short.

Follow up

In small groups the Players discuss how well their collected Values Cards match their true values.

VALUES MINGLE

Aim - written on a Poster - Collect 5 Values Cards with the values that you can stand for
Subtitle, 'Some Values are given to you, the others you will have to fight for'


Start
All the Players get 5 values on arrival at the 'Auction', preferably with a little 'ritual'.

The Game Leader announces that there will be three turns of three minutes each when the Players mingle in twos and threes to swap Values Cards, the aim being to gather 5 cards with the values that they can stand for.

The first turn
Players stand up and find one or two partners to swap values with. The aim is to persuade the other players to swap Values Cards so that you have a 'better' set of 5 cards.

The second and third turns
are with DIFFERENT partners

Follow up
In small groups the Players discuss how well their collected Values Cards match their true values.

VALUES in ORDER

Aim - putting Values into order
Subtitle, 'Some Values are given to you, the others you will have to fight for'

Each of the Players are given 5 Values Cards, in a small ritual.

Introduction
The Game Leader explains that, even though the given values may not be so special to the Player, they are more or less valuable, indeed they can be put into order from "Most Valuable" to "Least Valuable".

The steps in this Game will allow you to explore your Values, what's important to you, and how they affect your relationships with other people.

First step
Put your given values into order from "Most Valuable" to "Least Valuable".

Second step
Together with one or two other Players, put your collected given values into the group's order from "Most Valuable" to "Least Valuable".

Players discuss then vote on the priority of the Value Cards.

Rule: you must work towards agreeing on the order. The aim is to feel what the Values mean to you.

Possible third step
If the discussions have been 'too light', continue with one more step to provoke more demanding discussions.

Put groups together so that there are new groups with four - six Players. Instructions "Put your collected given values into the group's order from 'Most Valuable' to 'Least Valuable'".

Players discuss then vote on the priority of the Value Card.

Rule: you must work towards agreeing on the order. The aim is to feel what the Values mean to you and how they affect your relationships with others.

Follow up
In pairs, preferably with new partners, discuss the process of choosing and prioritising.

"How did it feel to have one of your favourite Values put at a low level by the group?"
"How did it feel when you realised that other Players had the same values as you?"
"How did it feel when you realised that other Players had very different values / priorities as you?"

Reflection
"What have you learned about Values in general?
"What have you learned about your Values in particular?"
"What role do Values play in your relationships with other people?"


VALUES FOCUS

Aim - written on a Poster - Collect 5 Values Cards with the values that you can stand for
Subtitle, 'Some Values are given to you, the others you will have to fight for'

Aim: to increase the presence / frequency / strength of desirable values


Step One
The Game Leader chooses 40 Values Cards and reads them aloud one by one, slowly so that the Players have time to write down the Values that they like the most.

Step Two
Each player selects the three Values they want to focus on today.

Step Three
In pairs, Player A asks Player B, then Player B asks Player A these questions for each of the top three values (use the values in any order)

"How does this value appear in your life right now?"
"If this value showed up MORE in your life, what would be different? (What are the signs?)"
"If this value showed up MORE in your life, how would that feel? (Describe how it feels)"


Repeat for all three values.


Step Four
The Game Leader asks the whole group in silence, or invites one Player to be interviewed in front of the group.

"If your most important value showed up MORE in your life, what would be different? (What are the signs?)"
"If this most important value showed up MORE in your life, how would that feel? (Describe how it feels)"
"What can you do in order to include this value in your life more, and more?"
"What else can you do... ?"


Follow up
Each Player writes down one or two actions they will take in order to increase the presence / frequency / strength of their most desirable values.
