01
Mark and test the operating footprint. Mark one camera position away from furniture, doors, cables, queues, tools, food, and the main route through an open-house welcome period connected to a supervised study hall break. BubbleMatch comes first because its movement can be tested inside the real footprint while a self-contained turn that can begin and end at any time remains visible.
02
Rehearse the exact opening moment. In an open-house welcome period connected to a supervised study hall break, the host opens with BubbleMatch because quiet, time, and supervision matter more than intensity; guests arrive in waves and do not share the same context. The host uses a self-contained turn that can begin and end at any time, gives one complete turn, and hands the result back to study hall coordinators so the activity can offer a short movement choice before students return to work through help newcomers understand the organization through participation. The operating angle is quiet play with a fixed start and finish.
03
Assign and rehearse the operator sequence. The host names the first action in one sentence, demonstrates BubbleMatch, invites a voluntary turn, waits for the result, and offers Snake only when the room still supports offer a short movement choice before students return to work through help newcomers understand the organization through participation. Next: Snake or observe; mark the exit.
04
Brief privacy and contingency choices before opening. In an open-house welcome period connected to a supervised study hall break, explain the webcam view before play and keep it separate from attendance, purchase, membership, student, health, or contact records.

If quiet, time, and supervision matter more than intensity; guests arrive in waves and do not share the same context, pause the station before it interferes with the main purpose of an open-house welcome period connected to a supervised study hall break. Switch to Snake or a no-camera explanation, keep the same marked zone, and stop cleanly.
