3. Let the girls in charge give orders (e.g. hop on one leg, do press ups, pretend to be an animal)
4. Switch up which group is which, if you like.
5. Ask the girls in the different groups how they felt in each position. Do they think that different members of society can be isolated like that? How must they feel?
