The facilitator calls the manual's template — 'In groups of ___ make a ___' — with a number and a thing (its examples: a car, a human body, a crane, a house, a wedding set), and people scramble to assemble it with their bodies before a countdown ends. Ending with a group of everyone making a circle lands the room ready for what is next. The debrief asks how each person found, led, or followed their group.
