Step-by-Step Instructions
- Gather your group around a step ladder (3 metres) lying on the ground.
- Challenge your group to invite and support every person to climb up the ladder on one side, step over the top and then climb down the other side while it is held tightly by the rest of the group.
- Encourage your group to consider how they can manage this task as safely as possible.
- At a minimum, instruct your group to adhere to these two safety measures:
-Position at least four feet against the base of the ladder’s feet to prevent them from slipping; and
– All participants not holding the ladder must be a spotter focusing on the climber at all times. - Allow ample time for your group to complete the task.
- In conclusion, and guided by your facilitation, invite your group to reflect on their experience.
