7) Tell participants not to be concerned with the artistic quality of their “windows� and that our purpose is simply to share personal information graphically or symbolically. 8) Answer any questions posed by participants and tell them they have 20 minutes to complete their windows. 9) When all participants have completed their charts, begin the process by displaying your own window. (Note: Be sure to share personal but not too intimate information. There is a danger that participants, following your lead, may feel pressured to share more than they are comfortable with). Try to keep your presentation under five minutes and suggest that participants do the same. 10) Ask for a volunteer from the group to present his or her window, and continue until all participants have been at the front. 11) Ask the other members of the resource team to share their windows in a similar manner. 12) As an option you may ask participants to post their windows to the classroom wall for reference during the day. 13) Ask participants how they felt during the exercise - listening to others and sharing personal information about them.
