Students explore personality dynamics in group work by teaming up according to their zodiac elements (Fire, Earth, Air, Water). Intro (5–10 mins): Briefly explain the four zodiac elements and the traits often linked to each. Hand out a quick reference sheet (e.g., Aries, Leo, Sagittarius = Fire). Group Sorting (5 mins): Students form groups based on their zodiac element (or allow those who don’t know/aren’t into astrology to pick whichever element they feel fits them best). Team Task (15–20 mins): Each group is given a small collaborative task (examples: build a tower with straws, solve a puzzle, brainstorm a class mascot, design a poster). The point isn’t the product, but observing how each “element team” approaches the task. Reflection & Share (10–15 mins): Groups reflect: How did your team work together? What roles did people naturally take? Did the stereotypes about your element show up? Each team shares a quick summary. Extension (Optional): Mix the groups (one Fire, one Earth, one Air, one Water) and repeat the task to see how dynamics shift when elements are balanced.
