The document discusses icebreakers and introductions used at the beginning of training courses to help participants get to know each other. It provides examples of icebreakers including having participants share unique characteristics, ask questions about pets or places lived, or play a game where they must determine which personal statement is a lie. The goal is to start courses on a positive note and make all participants feel comfortable.

1. Icebreakers
Icebreakers and Introductions
The first day of a course is essential to the success of the course. It is important to start the course on a positive note by making sure all of the
participants feel comfortable and get to know each other as soon as possible. The activities the trainer or facilitator uses at the beginning of a course
to help the participants get to know each other are known as icebreakers or introductions. Here are a number of icebreakers and introductions you can
use.
Unique Characteristics – Even if the participants already know each other, the clinical trainer must get to know them. Instead of asking participants to
say their names, the trainer can divide the group into pairs and give participants a few minutes to...show more content...
Training – Where have you conducted training? What have you taught? What year did you start?
Pet – How old is Dog? What does Dog eat? Where do you keep Dog?
Switzerland – Where did you live in Switzerland? What language was spoken in that part of Switzerland?
Step 3: Participants vote on which statement is a lie. The facilitator reveals which are truths and which are lies.
Place participants in small groups (3 or 4 works well). Small groups repeat steps 1 – 3. Have participants introduce each other to the large group.
What's the Question?
Step 1: The facilitator writes some facts on the board. Example:
Purple
16 months
Kenya
Step 2: Participants try to think of the question that matches each fact.
Purple – What's your favorite color? What color is your car? What color is your favorite clothing?
16 months – How long have you lived in this city? How old is your child? How long have you been married?
Kenya – Where were you born? Where have you worked? Where are you going on vacation?
Step 3: When participants have discovered all of the questions, place them in small groups (3 – 4). Repeat steps 1 and 2. Have participants introduce
each other to the large group.
Nonsense Name Game– Introduce yourself to the group with a sentence based upon the first letter of your name. Examples:

Types of trees that can be planted:
The type of tree planted may have great influence on the environmental outcomes. Planting the wrong kind of trees, such as monocultures of
eucalyptuswhere they are not native species, can devastate the lands of the local people.[citation needed] However, it is often much more profitable to
outside interests to plant non–native fast–growing trees, such as eucalyptus or pine (e.g., Pinus radiata or Pinus caribaea), even though the
environmental and biodiversity benefits of such monoculture plantations are not comparable to native forest, and such offset projects are frequently
objects of controversy (see below).
To promote the growth of native ecosystems, many environmentalists advocate only indigenous trees be planted. A practical solution is to plant tough,
fast–growing native tree species which begin rebuilding the land. Planting non–invasive trees that assist in the natural return of indigenous species is
called "assisted natural regeneration." There are many such species that can be planted, of which about 12 are in widespread use, such as Leucaena
leucocephala.[34]

5. My Favorite Activities
Finding time to complete all the activities I want to in a given day can be a challenge. I try to center my day around school first and foremost, and
then see what additional work I can accomplish. The most basic, essential, as well as challenging activity I undertake is my academic work. Every
day I wake up around 9 a.m. and begin my coursework after having breakfast and coffee. Because all of this takes place online, I open my laptop
and listen to music to help keep my mind from wandering while I work. Although there are different breaks such as tea and lunch breaks, it can
consume over half of the day. Away from my school life, family life generally comes second. I am expected to spend dinner with my parents most
evenings with exceptions on weekends. Much of my time is for the most part spent helping my mom out, as she has trouble with mobility and
sometimes requires assistance. I often drive her around to any appointments she might have as well as help her with groceries and other errands. Any
chores she has that have to do with bending, such as picking things up, I will usually help her with. Other than that, we also just spend a lot of time
together watching television and relaxing. On the other hand, I need to make time for my hobbies. This includes practicing my singing and playing
the piano, as well as reading and playing video games. Singing is my favorite activity, and I often find myself setting aside other tasks in order to do
so. When I have time, I will spend
