==[[Icebreakers and Warmups:Category:Breaking_Down_Stereotypes| Breaking Down Stereotypes]]==
Even if your group consists of members who all share the same race, religion, nation of origin or gender identity, there are many other ways that individuals can be different. We tend to make assumptions based on height, clothing style, mannerisms, etc. So, it is valuable for team members to get to know each other as individuals, and also to be aware of stereotyping in all interactions in life. How do you break down stereotypes and foster inclusion and equity within your team? Activities include: [[File:Fire.jpg|thumbnail|Gather 'round the fireCelebrity/Stereotype Party]], [[Diversity Bingo]], [[Students with Disabilities]], [[Who I Am - by Lineage]], and [[Your Stories]].
Also known as Energizers, Openers, and even Deinhibitizers, many activities help people feel comfortable and get to know each other in ways that can enhance all future collaboration.
They are commonly used during the first stages of team development (e.g., at the introductory meeting or class) or preceding a group process (e.g., to start off each gathering)- yet also try them whenever people need re-energizing, or when bringing in new members.
