| Summary: |
The exercise will be played in form of a competition. There must be a minimum of 3 teams. Each team has to be composed of at least 2 members: one blind person and one person can be sighted or can be partially sighted (if there are several members in the group at least 1 should have normal vision or should be partially sighted). A contest track will be prepared which can include (depending on the space that you use): start line, chairs, ropes, plastic bottles, etc (any material really that you can use, be as creative as possible). The set up of the materials should be as difficult as possible and should resemble a track with obstacles. The blind person will start to pass all the obstacles based on the direction given by his /her teammate. Each person from the team will take turns on going over the track, but the person who will give the instructions should always be a person with at least partial vision. For spicing up the game and create empathy in case one of the participants has normal vision or partially sighted his eyes can be covered. The team who finishes first the track will win. NOTE: do not use sharp or dangerous objects for creating the track. |
