Run the round
- Choose four to six prompts for a short introduction; keep the others for another gathering.
- Read each prompt aloud and display the text. Give thinking time; people may speak, type, write, use a communication aid, or pass.
- A short response is enough. Imagined answers are welcome, and no one needs to share a personal experience.
- Invite volunteers rather than requiring everyone to take a turn. Ask a follow-up only when the speaker welcomes it.
Scoring: No correct answers and no points. Welcome different responses without ranking them or choosing a winner.
