Working with the management of the school we have established the theme which is about the future of the school, and the givens. The storytelling will start at 6 pm the evening before. I will use the methodology learned from my training with Birgitt. I hope the snow melts or I will have problems finding so many stones!
Well you could just turn off the heat and use snow balls :-)
Can you see any special considerations when working with such a large group?
the one thing I have found is to set and clearly announce an "end-time." Whatever happens in between is what will happen. You might also use the "rules" of the Talking Stick -- Speak with respect, listen with respect -- and definitely respect the time available. Usually works -- at least I've never seen it not work. And if the group wants to continue after The End Time -- so be it -- but everybody else is free to use the Law of Two Feet. Or something. Harrison
