ICEBREAKER
Telephone Game - Drawing Version

Thursday, November 8, 12

ICEBREAKER
• First, make even groups of 6 people each
• Second, each person in the group needs to get out
paper and pen/pencil
• Third, an e-board member is going to show the
ﬁrst person in the group a phrase and ask them to
draw it and then show the person behind them.
• Remember no talking!


ICEBREAKER
• The person behind them will look at the phase and
try to copy it on their own paper and then show
the person behind them until the end of the line.
• The person at the end of the line looks at the
phrase and then without any help, has to tell what
the phrase is to an e-board member!
• If the group doesn’t get it then the group has to
start all over from the start of the line.


TIE BREAKER
• If two groups both ﬁnish at the same time and
both groups have the phrase drawn right and
could tell you what it is then give each group one
more phrase to draw and then have them play the
game again.


v If two groups both ﬁnish at the same time and

Public Etquette

PUBLIC ETIQUETTE
Avoid public displays of aﬀection with a member of the opposite sex.

. Do not touch someone's head.

Hello or Chào :)
The traditional way to greet adults would be to cross our arms and bow our heads
We would say hello followed by an honorific
(Example: ông, bà, chú, bác)


Bye or Chào

Bye or Chào
• Hi and Bye in Vietnamese is both Chào.
• when greeting someone, say “xin chao” (seen
chow) + given name + title.


Dining Etiquette

Dining Etiquette
• The host may serve guests, but will usually just invite
everyone to begin helping themselves.
• Food is placed on dishes in the center of the table from
which each person helps him/herself.
• Vietnamese style of dining is chopsticks and rice bowls.
• Hold your rice bowl in your hand; it is considered lazy to eat
from a rice bowl that is on the table.


Gift Giving :D
• Flowers are normally given only by men to
women.
• Always wrap a gift in colorful paper.
• When visiting a Vietnamese home, bring a gift
for the hostess.
• A gift for children or an elderly parent is also
appreciated.
• Give items useful for daily activity.
• Do not give handkerchiefs, anything black,
yellow ﬂowers or chrysanthemums.


Business Etiquette
Relationships are critical to successful business partnerships.
Always invest time in building a good relationship based on
both personal and business lines.
Any initial meeting should be solely used as a "getting to know
you" meeting.
o The spoken word is very important. Never make promises that
you can not keep to as this will lead to a loss of face.
o Business gift giving is fairly common at the end of a meeting
or during a meal.


TRIVIA TIME!


 We love you and appreciate you for attending all past
meetings and showing an interest in VSA, and by that,
you help keep VSA alive!
