Here is an example of what you can do for Activities
Remember, you are the facilitator so you have to do most of the work
Start by introducing everyone in the group one by one and say what their favorite some thing is if they piped in and tell you what it is, that would be great
You could say by the way they look or smiling or something whatever they’re doing you know their favorite is what you know they like
And then do the group whatever it might be singing or sensory and go to each person individually, perhaps squeeze her hand or rub their shoulder and say OK I think we’re going to sing the person’s favorite song and then you may be singing it yourself or maybe some will join in
Using props is great too. You could pass them around or see if one person could pass some thing to another person do simple things in the group say if you doing exercise, go around individually and move their arm up and down whatever the exercise you’re doing again when they do something complement complement complement.
Think of it like a performance where you’re doing most of the performing and hope fully some of the residents will join in you could play a simple card game like red or black or who can pick the highest number
Then to end the group thank everyone for participating in, may want to go around the group and say something nice about each person and what they did that was really good again compliment, compliment, compliment
The group should last about a half an hour, then take a break
