| Participants: | 4 to many |
| Time: | 20-30 min. |
| Materials: | Flip charts Marker pens |

Some responses may trigger related associations that become branches of the web. 3) Continue asking for responses for approximately 10 minutes, or until the group stops offering responses. 4) When the web is complete, ask the participants to look at the drawing and describe what they think it shows. Often the majority of the responses are negative or violent. If this is the case, point this out to the group. Also highlight if you see many responses addressing feelings, or types of conflict. 5) You can facilitate the discussion by askink questions, such as:
