- Simple inductions without scripts, including tips on selecting an effective induction for the individual(s) you are playing with
- Suggestion work: starting with simple things to build confidence and then where to go next as your skills develop
- Rapport and why it is an important skill to learn early
- Some thoughts on how to respectfully approach others for play
- Other topics that the class wants to hear about
