Teachers can tailor the learning activity to three difficulty levels to meet students’ needs.
- Beginner learners (6-7 years old): The simplest questions requiring one-word answers (e.g., favourite animal). The focus is on the visual experience of the network.
- Advanced learners (8-9 years old): Ask a question that requires them to respond to the previous person (e.g., “Peter likes apples, and I like pears,” then throw).
- Expert learners (9–10 years old): Once the network is formed, the real challenge begins: the group must unravel the thread backwards without getting tangled up. To do this, they must remember exactly who gave them the ball of yarn and say that student’s name when passing it back.
