❖ The Exercise in Action: Loretta Gutting, manager of Southwestern Bell in St. Louis, uses a variation of the board game Scrabble as a review exercise. Gutting writes one word in the center of a piece of graph flipchart paper. Partici- pants must build on that word and subsequent words in a Scrabble or crossword puzzle fashion. Participants can use any letters to build words. Gutting says it’s proven to be a great way to review or brain- storm topics.
